Three Arsenal players are likely to be ruled out of their Carabao Cup tie against Albion.

The trio appeared to suffer injuries in a 1-0 win over Crystal Palace on Sunday.

While information on their condition post-match was limited, it would appear unlikely they will face the Seagulls in Wednesday night’s fourth-round tie at the Emirates.

Mikel Arteta was awaiting news on injuries sustained to William Saliba, Declan Rice and Riccardo Calafiori.

His side return to league action with a trip to face Burnley on Saturday.

Saliba did not emerge after the interval against Palace while Rice and Calafiori were replaced in the second half.

A cryptic Arteta added: “On William there were two things related to his substitution, and with Declan I don’t really know because it was a knock.

“I don’t know if it was his calf or Achilles. Tomorrow we will have more news.”

While the Carabao Cup is hardly a priority for Arsenal, they will be keen to keep momentum going and have their strongest squad for several seasons.
