The Gunners have had a poor run of results and they have picked up just one point from their previous three league games.
The club recently suffered a 1-0 defeat to Inter Milan in the Champions League where they were probably the better outfit.
Arsenal will travel to Stamford Bridge for Sunday’s derby against Chelsea.
The game appears a must-win for them as they are already seven points behind Liverpool, who are top of the league standings.
Ahead of the derby, Declan Rice is set to continue playing despite suffering a broken toe.
The 25-year-old sustained the setback in the 1-0 defeat at Newcastle United and he subsequently missed the visit to San Siro.
However, there is optimism that he will be fit for the west London trip to face the Blues.
