The Ukrainian has been on the sidelines for the past few weeks with a calf injury and has not featured in the last two games.

Zinchenko was not spotted in training in Dubai and he was also not in the pictures in today's session at the London Colney.

Hence, it seems highly unlikely that he will make the matchday squad against the Eagles in tomorrow's early kick-off at home.

In his absence, Jakub Kiwior is the natural replacement in the left-back role with Takehiro Tomiyasu away on international duty.

Kiwior scored an own goal in the 2-0 FA Cup third round loss to Liverpool this month and he will be aiming to make amends.

Arsenal are winless in their last three games and will be hoping to end the wretched run of form with a victory in the derby.
