Arsenal forward Theo Walcott (groin) is a major doubt against United. Former United forward Danny Welbeck (hamstring) will also be assessed along with Alexis Sanchez, who was involved in a lot of travelling while on international duty with Chile. France forward Olivier Giroud is back in contention after three months out with a broken leg, along with captain Mikel Arteta, who has recovered from a hamstring problem. Defender Laurent Koscielny (Achilles), Mesut Ozil (knee), Mathieu Debuchy (ankle), goalkeeper David Ospina (thigh) and Abou Diaby (calf) are all still unavailable. Manchester United striker Radamel Falcao will miss out as he is still suffering from a calf injury. In defence Marcos Rojo (shoulder), Phil Jones (shin), Jonny Evans (ankle) and Rafael (hamstring) are out while Luke Shaw is a doubt due to a groin injury. Midfielder Michael Carrick (groin), goalkeeper David de Gea (finger) and winger Angel di Maria (foot) are expected to play despite suffering minor injuries on international duty, but midfielder Daley Blind is sidelined with a serious knee problem he sustained in Hollands 6-0 win over Latvia last week.
