Mesut Ozil out of Chelsea clash
Arsenal travel to Stamford Bridge on Sunday for a pivotal fixture against last season's champions. Wenger's side will have to cope with the absence of German playmaker Mesut Ozil.
After missing out on Arsenal's midweek Europa League win over Cologne, Mesut Ozil is set to miss the Gunners' trip to Chelsea on Sunday.
Arsene Wenger stated ahead of his side's 3-1 win on Thursday that the German would be 'rested' along with Aaron Ramsey at the Emirates, not ruling out a return at Stamford Bridge.
However, just hours before the 'Super Sunday' clash, Arsenal have been dealt a heavy blow: Mesut Ozil is out of the key fixture due to a muscle injury.
The Gunners will face an already tricky fixture without their chief creative force, while Alexis Sanchez will feature against the Blues.
