Arsenal are back in action on Saturday, facing Brighton away from home in the Premier League. The Gunners are off to a faultless start to the season, yet to put a foot wrong.

Mikel Arteta's men continued their good form during the week, when they defeated Ipswich Town in the Carabao Cup, while Brighton came back from two down to beat Manchester United in the cup, continuing their strong start to the season.

Here we round up all the latest injury news surrounding both sides ahead of this one.

Stefanos Tzimas - Out

Hurzeler confirmed this week: "Yeah, a small setback in his rehab. Nothing big, but it takes a little bit longer than we expected. He tries to work hard on the pitch. We try to help him, and hopefully, we will see him soon. I can't give a clear schedule when he will be back, but it goes in the right direction."

Yankuba Minteh - Out

Minteh is going to be out for a good few weeks with a calf issue. Hurzeler said this week: "With Minteh, he will even miss, unfortunately, for a longer period. Don't ask me for how long, but it will be definitely for several weeks."

Karou Mitoma - Out

Mitoma won't be back from his hamstring until after the international break.

Jack Hinshelwood - Out

Hinshelwood is now expected to be out until after the break.

Mats Wieffer - Out

Wieffer has a knee issue that will keep him out until after the international break.

Femi Azeez - Out

Another Brighton star who will return after the break.

Michael Svoboda - Out

Svoboda will be back after the break after a setback in his return from a knee issue.

Zadok Yohanna - Out

Hurzeler has said: "We will give him time until after the international break to adapt, and then hopefully after, he can contribute again."

Jaouen Hadjam - Doubt

Hadjam went off with an injury during the week and will be a doubt here.

Evan Ferguson - Out

There is no current return date for Ferguson as he continues rehab.

William Saliba - Out

Saliba is dealing with a back injury, and it's unclear where he will return as things stand. It's likely the defender will be back at some point in November.

Cristhian Mosquera - Doubt

Mosquera could well play, but he has another test to pass first. Arteta has said: "Yeah, we have another session. They are willing to be part of it, and we have another session to make sure that they are fit."

Ben White - Doubt

The same update was issued of White, who has been dealing with a groin issue.

Piero Hincapie - Doubt

The same update also applies to Hincapie, who will be assessed in training.
