Fabianski misses out

Arsenal will again be without goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski because of a cracked rib for tomorrow’s Barclays Premier League trip to Fulham.

Fellow Pole Wojciech Szczesny will get the chance to reclaim the number one jersey again, while midfielder Tomas Rosicky (hamstring) faces a fitness test.

Left-back Nacho Monreal is pressing for a start after being named on the bench for the last two games, as is forward Lukas Podolski, but midfielder Abou Diaby (knee) is a long-term absentee.

Provisional squad: Szczesny, Monreal, Mertesacker, Koscielny, Sagna, Cazorla, Walcott, Ramsey, Wilshere, Arteta, Giroud, Mannone, Gibbs, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Podolski, Gervinho, Vermaelen, Rosicky.
