Standard Liege vs Arsenal - Standard Liege hoping to cash in on Arsenal’s injury problems
Posted Thursday, December 12, 2019 by PA
Standard Liege will be hoping to make the most of Arsenal’s injury problems in their final Europa League Group F fixture.
The Gunners head to Belgium top of the table, but only three points ahead of their hosts and will qualify with a win if Frankfurt lose to Vitoria.
Liege, though, will be without defender Noe Dussenne (cruciate), midfielder Anthony Limbombe (knee), forward Orlando Sa (Achilles) and goalkeeper Vanja Milinkovic-Savic (collarbone).
Arsenal defender Kieran Tierney is facing a spell on the sidelines after he suffered a dislocated shoulder in Monday’s Premier League win at West Ham.
Full-back Hector Bellerin (hamstring) will not travel to Belgium, while midfielder Granit Xhaka suffered a concussion against West Ham so will not feature.
Arsenal club-record signing Nicolas Pepe is nursing a bruised knee. Dani Ceballos (hamstring) and defender Rob Holding (knee) are also still recovering fitness.
