Arsenal travel to Bournemouth on Saturday with Mikel Arteta dealing with a number of key injuries as the Premier League returns.
The Gunners are a point off leaders Liverpool after victory over Southampton, meaning they have an opportunity to go top before Arne Slot’s side host Chelsea on Sunday, with defending champions Manchester City travelling to Wolves in the early kick-off.
Andoni Iraola’s Cherries return this weekend in 13th and are five points clear of the relegation zone but need a response after defeat to Leicester before the break.
And an opportunity to upset Arteta’s title contenders could boost the Spanish coach’s reputation further.
Saka limped off in England’s defeat to Greece and subsequently missed the match against Finland, although Arteta will be hopeful after Lee Carsley suggested his omission was a precaution.
