ARSENAL could be without Bukayo Saka and Declan Rice against Bournemouth as Mikel Arteta faces a mini injury crisis.<\/strong><\/p>\n The Gunners are looking to respond to their North London Derby draw with their fourth away win of the season.<\/p>\n But they face a few obstacles with injuries to key men in every area of the squad – from defence to attack.<\/p>\n Arteta confirmed several players have not trained all week, with some not selected against Brentford in the Carabao Cup in mid-week due to fitness issues – including Saka and William Saliba.<\/p>\n The Arsenal boss said: \u201cDeclan [Rice] hasn\u2019t trained yet, we have a session in an hour, we\u2019ll get more news about him.<\/p>\n \u201cGabi [Martinelli] hasn\u2019t trained, Leo [Trossard] same situation, Saka, same.<\/p>\n \u201cThey are all in the same pool, Willy [Saliba] had a knock, Fabio [Vieira] wasn\u2019t involved. We have to assess them today.\u201d<\/p>\n Rice was substituted at half-time against Tottenham after reportedly experiencing a back spasm.<\/p>\n To make matters worse for Arsenal his natural replacement, Thomas Partey, is also injured and not expected back until October 21.<\/p>\n Arteta has a similar problem in attack with Saka and Gabriel Martinelli picking up knocks last time out.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n FREE BETS – BEST BETTING OFFERS AND BONUSES NEW CUSTOMERS<\/strong><\/p>\n Leandro Trossard, who would normally be brought in to deputise for that pair, has a hamstring issue.<\/p>\n That means Gabriel Jesus and Eddie Nketiah will likely start in attack, while the team could be reliant on captain Odegaard to produce the creativity needed to win the match.<\/p>\n
