Mesut Ozil will not make the starting line-up for the second week running as Arsenal head coach Arsene Wenger has left him on the bench going into Leicester City clash.
The 27-year-old sat out of Arsenal’s defeat at the hands of Liverpool last week after being given an extended break following Euro 2016.
Laurent Koscielny has been rushed back but Ozil and Olivier Giroud will be on the bench going into the game.
Ozil missed the first Premier League game of the season against Liverpool which saw the Gunners lost 4-3 against at the Emirates.
Leicester City boss Claudio Ranieri meanwhile has not included Switzerland international Gokhan Inler in the match-day squad.
