Kieran Gibbs to miss Gunners' Swans trip

Arsenal will rest left-back Kieran Gibbs, who has just returned from a thigh injury, for tomorrow’s trip to Swansea, where Nacho Monreal is available after being cup-tied in the Champions League.

Goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny and captain Thomas Vermaelen are in contention having sat out the 2-0 win in Bayern Munich.

However, England midfielder Jack Wilshere and striker Lukas Podolski (both ankle) are still out, as is full-back Bacary Sagna (knee).

Provisional Squad: Fabianski, Jenkinson, Vermaelen, Mertesacker, Monreal, Rosicky, Cazorla, Arteta, Diaby, Walcott, Giroud, Szczesny, Ramsey, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Gervinho, Arshavin, Coquelin, Miquel.
