Arsenal star Mesut Özil is expected to make a return to the Gunners starting line-up today. The North London based side host the Potters at the Emirates stadium, kick-off is at 15:00 (GMT).

Özil is expected to be fit for Arsenal’s clash with Stoke City in the Premier League this weekend. The 26-year-old played in both of Germany’s Euro 2016 qualification games last week.

Stoke have gotten off to a slow start to the season and are yet to record a win after four games. Arsenal sit in sixth place with seven points in four games and know a victory could carry them into the top four.

Özil missed the Gunners game against Newcastle before the international break. The North London based side secured a 1-0 victory in the World Cup winners absence.
