However, the Gunners will be forced into making one change this weekend of the news that right back Bacary Sagna will be out for the next 3 weeks with a hamstring problem meaning that Carl Jenkinson will likely start in his place.
There is also going to be some discussion as to whether Jack Wilshere will start for Arsenal at The Hawthorns having been dropped to the bench during the 2-0 against Napoli with Wenger unhappy over the player’s attitude at training.
It means that Mikel Arteta or Tomas Rosicky could remain in the squad over Wilshere whilst Aarton Ramsey will also feature having scored 8 goals in the last 9 games.
West Brom are finally starting to get some momentum after a poor start to the season having won their last 2 games and climbing up to 12th in the table.
Steve Clarke’s side are still struggling a little upfront with injuries and on-loan winger Scott Sinclair will be the main absentee with the former Man City player out until after the international break.
Alongside that, Victor Anichebe is also a major doubt for the game having picked up a groin strain during last weekend’s shock win against Manchester United.
Despite the losses, West Brom fans should take confidence in their recent run of form which has been their best in nearly a year and has seen manager Steve Clarke eek out the best win ratio of any their managers in the Premier League with a record of 36% since he took charge last year.
West Brom know they have all the resources they need to pick up their third win in a row however Arsenal have beat one of the most in-form sides in Europe on Tuesday and having already beaten The Baggies once this season at The Hawthorns, they know that they will be able to do the same on Sunday evening.
