Torreira and Holding fit to face Southampton

Arsenal duo Lucas Torreira and Rob Holding are set to be fit for this weekend’s clash with Southampton.

The Saints travel to the Emirates Stadium, hoping to come away with a positive result.

There were some concerns about the fitness of Torreira after he was replaced against Leicester City in Arsenal’s last fixture. But, as reported on Football London, he starred for Uruguay during the 2-2 draw with Argentina, so he’s back fit and ready.

There have also been a few concerns about Holding but he’s expected to also be available for selection for Unai Emery.

READ SOUTHAMPTON VERDICT 

The Saints know that getting something from this game will be difficult, but Arsenal are not in the best place at the moment and if there was a time to take points off them, it is now.

Ralph Hasenhuttl’s men put in a good display at the Etihad Stadium a few weeks ago and they’ll need a similar performance in north London.

After the Gunners, the Saints have a stretch of favourable fixtures so starting off with a positive result at the Emirates would be perfect.
