Arsenal will look to continue their impressive home form when they host struggling Ipswich Town in the Premier League on Friday evening.

The Gunners come into the match on the back of a 5-1 thrashing of Crystal Palace last weekend, with Gabriel Jesus scoring a brace. Mikel Arteta’s side are now the only Premier League team yet to lose at home this season.

In contrast, Ipswich sit 19th on the table and are still searching for their first home win of the campaign after a 4-0 defeat against Newcastle United last time out.

Arsenal will be without the injured Bukayo Saka for “many weeks” due to a hamstring problem, while Raheem Sterling, Ben White and Takehiro Tomiyasu also remain sidelined.

However, Oleksandr Zinchenko could make his return from a muscular issue. Declan Rice is expected to come back into the midfield, potentially pushing Kai Havertz further forward.

For Ipswich, captain Sam Morsy is suspended after picking up five yellow cards. Kieran McKenna may turn to Kalvin Phillips to replace him in midfield.

Liam Delap could come in up front, having returned from suspension, while Chiedozie Ogbene, Janoi Donacien, George Hirst and Axel Tuanzebe are all unavailable through injury.

Even without the influential Saka, Arsenal should have too much quality for the struggling Tractor Boys. Ipswich have found it difficult to keep clean sheets on the road this season, and the Gunners’ attacking firepower, led by the in-form Jesus, is likely to prove too much for the visitors.
