Mikel Arteta's side will be looking to secure a crucial victory but may have to do so with a heavily depleted squad.
The most significant concern is Gabriel Magalhaes, who has been substituted in each of Arsenal's last two matches due to fitness issues. The Brazilian centre-back remains a doubt for the midweek clash, although reports suggest he could play limited minutes to bolster his side's defence.
The list of absentees also includes defensive stalwarts Takehiro Tomiyasu and Ben White, as well as summer signing Riccardo Calafiori, all of whom are battling injuries. Midfielders Mikel Merino and Thomas Partey complete the list, leaving Arteta with significant gaps to fill in key areas of the pitch.
Ruben Amorim's Manchester United arrive at the Emirates in resurgent form. The Red Devils will look to capitalise on Arsenal's injury woes, making this a crucial test for the Gunners as they aim to maintain their title ambitions.
