Arsenal could be without both Alexis Sanchez and Hector Bellerin for the trip to Manchester United as the pair are currently struggling with injuries.

Sanchez had to leave a training session with his national team early due to a calf injury and early reports suggested that he may have torn his calf muscle but the Chilean FA have said the injury is a l"ow-grade muscle injury.

Bellerin, who has recently committed his future to the Gunners by signing a new contract, did not train with the rest of his Spanish U21 teammates ahead of Friday's game against Austria.

There is still a chance that the duo could compete at United, in fact, neither have been ruled out of competing for their national sides but Gunners fans will be hoping that the duo's respective international managers choose to act with caution and not risk them.

The trip to United is a huge game for Arsenal and Arsene Wenger will want to have his starting right-back and striker available for selection so he will be keen for them not to play during the international break.
