Arsenal continue to be hit by serious injuries as now Mesut Özil faces a long lay off with a knee injury and Laurent Koscielny is sidelined leaving Nacho Monreal to fill in at centre back. Hull will be buoyed by Arsène Wenger’s woes and will want to build on their first home win of the season in their last outing. Wenger will still be confident, though, that his misfiring Gunners’ superior attacking force can secure a much needed victory.
