Theo Walcott and Samir Nasri have been passed fit to face Villarreal in the Champions League on Tuesday.
Walcott suffered a minor knee problem against Manchester City on Saturday while Nasri returned from international duty last week with flu. Both players are available for the Quarter-Final first leg.
However, Robin van Persie will not travel to Spain after failing to shrug off a groin injury. Arsène Wenger had given the Dutchman a "50:50" chance of making the 18-man squad but he misses out.
Eduardo (groin), Abou Diaby (thigh) and Tomas Rosicky (groin) are also unavailable on Tuesday night.
Arsenal squad to face Villarreal:
1 Manuel Almunia (GK)
3 Bacary Sagna
4 Cesc FABREGAS
5 Kolo TOURE
8 Samir NASRI
10 William GALLAS
12 Carlos Vela
14 Theo Walcott
15 Denilson
17 Alex Song

21 Lukasz Fabianski (GK)
22 Gael CLICHY
