Full Arsenal squad for West Brom clash as Mikel Arteta following triple injury blow.
The Gunners will be seeking to return to winning ways this evening.
Arsenal are back in business three days after being knocked out of the Europa League against Villarreal after a goalless draw in the semi-final second leg as they take on a West Brom side who are still struggling to dodge relegation.
The Gunners won 4-0 to in the reverse fixture at the Hawthorns earlier in the summer and Mikel Arteta will need more of the same if his team is to complete the campaign strongly.
In fact, Arteta has asked his players to take their Europa League pain out on the Baggies.
“We have no time because we have a game on Sunday,” he told reporters. “We had a training session on Friday and it had to be when you leave the training ground, most of it has to be out of the system.
“I think you have to leave some of it in some of your system and use some of it in the right way as an energy driver in the game on Sunday.”

Ahead of this evening’s encounter against West Brom, the latest Arsenal team report has been confirmed and Arteta will be without as many as three first-team players.
David Luiz misses out due to a hamstring injury he sustained against Newcastle United a week ago, whilst the groin strain that forced Granit Xhaka to depart from the starting XI on Thursday night sidelines him once again.
The latest name added to the Arsenal injury list is that of central defender Pablo Mari who will not fit to face the Baggies after sustaining a sprained ankle versus Villarreal.
With that in mind, Arteta has lots of alternatives to pick from with Kieran Tierney and Alexandre Lacazette coming through their returns uninjured.
Full Arsenal squad
Goalkeepers: Bernd Leno, Alex Runarsson, Matt Ryan.
Defenders: Hector Bellerin, Kieran Tierney, Gabriel, Rob Holding, Cedric, Calum Chambers
Midfielders: Bukayo Saka, Dani Ceballos, Martin Odegaard, Thomas Partey, Mohamed Elneny, Emile Smith Rowe
