Three Key players Including Aubameyang That Will Miss Trip To Southampton

Arsenal will travel to the St Mary's stadium on Tuesday night to face Southampton for the second in time in three days.

Recall that the Saints knocked out Arsenal from the FA Cup after an own goal from Gabriel Magalhães was the difference at the end of 90 minutes. 

The game is expected to kick off at 9pm GMT and Mikel Arteta will be hoping to seek revenge against Southampton. 

Ahead of the game tonight, it's been gathered that three players from the Arsenal squad are expected to miss the away trip. 

But full back, Kieran Tierney is set to face a late fitness test. Reports suggest that Tierney is being assessed for discomfort in the right lower leg.

It's been gathered that Arsenal's captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has been ruled out of the game due to personal family reasons. The former Borussia Dortmund star missed the weekend FA Cup loss to Southampton. 

Mikel Arteta stated that he's unsure of how long Aubameyang will be out of team. 

Also, Spanish midfielder, Dani Ceballos has resumed training following a calf injury. The game against Southampton might come to fast for Ceballos. 

Finally, Pablo Mari has been out for the past two week due to a mild calf strain. It's been gathered that Mari is expected to be back in training this week.
