Arsenal will be without forwards Lukas Podolski (hamstring) and Theo Walcott (calf) for tomorrow’s Premier League clash against West Brom at Emirates Stadium.

Defender Bacary Sagna (foot) is a major doubt, but Laurent Koscielny (thigh) is definitely out.

Full-back Andre Santos (stomach muscle) and midfielder Abou Diaby (thigh) continue their rehabilitation.

Provisional squad: Szczesny, Gibbs, Vermaelen, Mertesacker, Jenkinson, Cazorla, Rosicky, Wilshere, Arteta, Gervinho, Giroud, Mannone, Coquelin, Ramsey, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Chamakh, Arshavin, Djourou, Sagna.
