The Gunners will face Chelsea in a London derby in the final of the FA Cup on August 1st.
Both Frank Lampard and Mikel Arteta are hoping to pick up their first trophy in their first season as managers.
For Mikel Arteta, a victory in the final of FA Cup will see Arsenal seal their spot in the Europa League next season.
Arsenal are currently outside the spot for Europa as the sit tenth on the league standing.
The Gunners will face Watford on Sunday in their final game of the campaign. As it stands, Arsenal cannot finish higher than eighth with a win against relegation side, Watford. It will be the club's worst league finish since 1995.
Arteta believes Mustafi will not be fit for the game against Watford but he's hopeful for Chelsea game.
Speaking during his press conference, he said: "I doubt it. I don't know. We have to see how he evolves in the next few days. At the moment, I doubt it."
Recall that the German defender suffered a hamstring injury in the 2-0 win over Pep Guardiola's side, Manchester City last week.
Mustafi also to missed Tuesday night’s 1-0 defeat at Aston Villa.
