Kieran Gibbs is facing a race against time to be fit for Arsenal’s Premier League clash against Wigan Athletic on Monday evening.
The England international picked up a groin injury during the recent 1-0 victory against Manchester City and has only a 50-50 chance of featuring against the Latics, who are 9/5 with bookmaker to be relegated this season and 18/1 to come away from the capital with a goalless draw.
The Gunners are without suspended defender Laurent Koscielny while midfielders Abou Diaby and Francis Coquelin will also miss out because of hamstring injuries.
Arsenal have won nine of their last ten matches and victory against Roberto Martinez’s men would see them move eight points clear of Spurs, who are ahead of Newcastle United on goal difference in fourth place.
