Bukayo Saka will miss out on his side’s final Premier League game of the season after picking up a muscle injury last week.

Arsenal welcome Everton to the Emirates Stadium late Sunday afternoon as they hope for a miracle which will give them their first Premier League title in two decades.

The Gunners will be reliant on West Ham getting a result against Manchester City to give them a chance at the title, although not many are holding out hope.

Mikel Arteta’s side will have to concentrate on their own task, however, as a resilient Toffee’s side won’t roll over easily.

The Spanish manager will have to do it without his star player Saka, with the English winger being ruled out of the fixture due to a muscle issue.

The forward picked up the problem during his side’s 1-0 win against Manchester United last weekend and is replaced in the starting eleven by Gabriel Martinelli.

Although a massive blow for the Gunners, they will still be confident of doing the double over the Merseyside club.

Regardless of the outcome this weekend, Arsenal fans will be optimistic about their sides future and excited about the upcoming summer transfer window.
