Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain scored both of Arsenal’s goals in the League Cup and is pushing for a start on Saturday. Theo Walcott has a hamstring problem and may not feature this weekend. Nacho Monreal is also a doubt, which means Kieran Gibbs could start.

Sunderland were dumped out the League Cup on Wednesday after losing 1-0 to Southampton and frustrations boiled over as David Moyes was sent to the stands. The Black Cats are still set to be without Sebastian Larsson, Fabio Borini, Jan Kirchhoff, Vito Mannone, Adnan Januzaj, Jason Denayer and Lee Cattermole this weekend.

Sunderland are still looking for their first win in the Premier League this season having lost seven of their nine league matches this season.

Arsenal’s run of six straight wins in the league game to an end last weekend after only managing a 0-0 draw against Middlesbrough.

Ominously, the last time these two played it finished 0-0 but Arsenal haven’t gone two league matches without a goal since February.
