Arsenal face Ipswich Town at the Emirates Stadium, with injuries to key players like Saka and Sterling raising concerns for manager Mikel Arteta.
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta says Bukayo Saka will be sidelined for 'many weeks' after injuring his hamstring against Crystal Palace on Saturday. Fellow winger Raheem Sterling is also absent because of a knee problem, joining Ben White and Takehiro Tomiyasu on the sidelines, while Oleksandr Zinchenko's availability remains in doubt. Ipswich captain Sam Morsy serves a one-game ban so Kalvin Phillips, who has been managing an ankle issue, could start his first game for eight weeks.
Arsenal are unbeaten in 13 league games against Ipswich since a 2-1 defeat at Portman Road in September 1984, when Russell Osman and Romeo Zondervan scored for the Suffolk club (W10, D3). The Blues' only previous match at the Emirates Stadium was a League Cup semi-final second leg on 25 January 2011. They lost 3-0, bowing out 3-1 on aggregate. Town's last league victory away to the Gunners was by 2-0 at Highbury in August 1979, when Allan Hunter and Arnold Muhren scored for Sir Bobby Robson's side.The Gunners are unbeaten in their 11 most recent Premier League games at the Emirates (W8, D3) and are the only top-flight side still unbeaten at home this season. Mikel Arteta's side are vying to record four consecutive clean sheets in home league matches for the first time since December 2021. They have won 18 of their past 19 Premier League games against promoted opposition, including each of the last eight, only dropping points in a 1-0 defeat at Nottingham Forest in May 2023. Arsenal have won their final league fixture in three of the past four calendar years, with the exception a 2-1 defeat at Fulham on New Year's Eve last year. Gabriel Jesus has scored five goals in his last two games for Arsenal in all competitions, as many as he had in his previous 45 appearances for the club.David Raya has kept 22 clean sheets in 49 Premier League appearances for Arsenal and needs one more to break David Seaman's club record for most shut-outs after 50 games in the divisio
