Adebayor set to return for Arsenal

Leading scorer Emmanuel Adebayor looks set to return to the Arsenal attack for tomorrow night’s Champions League quarter-final clash with Liverpool at Emirates Stadium.

The Togo frontman was rested on the bench against Bolton on Saturday, but is in line for a recall to the starting XI.

Midfielder Abou Diaby is available for the European tie, as his suspension for the red card at the Reebok Stadium is for domestic games.

Emmanuel Eboue could slot back onto the right side of defence, which would allow England squad man Theo Walcott another chance to impress down the right wing after coming off the bench in the 3-2 victory at the weekend.

Full-back Bacary Sagna (ankle), midfielder Tomas Rosicky (hamstring) remain sidelined, while striker Eduardo is out for the season with a broken leg.

Team (from): Almunia, Eboue, Toure, Gallas, Clichy, Hleb, Flamini, Fabregas, Walcott, van Persie, Adebayor, Lehmann, Diaby, Bendtner, Hoyte, Senderos, Gilberto, Denilson.
