Takehiro Tomiyasu, Thomas Partey: Arsenal injury and suspension latest ahead of Wolves clash

It has been a frustrating start to the new year for Arsenal, to say the least.

The Gunners have been eliminated from the FA Cup and Carabao Cup, leaving them with just their Premier League placing to fight for during the rest of the campaign.

Mikel Arteta's men will be keen to finish in the top four and end their five-year UEFA Champions League hiatus, although a quiet January transfer window may make that difficult given local rivals Tottenham Hotspur were active.

Currently, Arsenal sit three points behind fourth-placed Manchester United, who have played two games more.

After a lengthy break in action, the north Londoners will travel to Molineux to face Wolverhampton Wanderers on Thursday (February 10) in a must-win league fixture.

Ahead of the clash against Bruno Lage's side, takes a look at all the latest injury and suspension news that Arteta will need to consider.

Japan international Takehiro Tomiyasu has been struggling with a calf injury in recent weeks.

The versatile right-back first suffered the problem during the 4-1 win against Leeds United back in December but tried to play through the pain barrier during last month's 2-0 defeat to Liverpool in the second leg of the Carabao Cup semi-final.

Arteta has confirmed that the Japanese international is back in training ahead of the trip to Wolverhampton.

"He’s there. He had a recurring injury in the same place, so we had to be careful with him, but he’s been training hard.

"Let’s see if he’s available for Thursday."
