Arsenal team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Olympiacos

Sports Mole rounds up Arsenal's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their Europa League fixture with Olympiacos on Thursday night.

Arsenal take on Olympiacos in the first leg of their Europa League last-32 tie having put together an eight-match unbeaten streak in all competitions.

While four of those games ended in draws, the Gunners are on a high having thrashed Newcastle United in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon.

The North London outfit reached this stage of the competition by topping a group which included Eintracht Frankfurt, Vitoria de Guimaraes and Standard Liege, although this contest represents Mikel Arteta's first as a manager on the continent.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Arsenal's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the trip to Greece.
