Arteta revealed that Lewis-Skelly was unable to complete Tuesday's training session due to discomfort from an incident in the previous match against Aston Villa. Consequently, Lewis-Skelly has been omitted from the squad for the upcoming fixture.
In response to Lewis-Skelly's absence, Arteta has made adjustments to the defensive lineup. Oleksandr Zinchenko has been selected to start, marking his fourth appearance of the season. Additionally, Riccardo Calafiori, who recently returned to training, is available on the bench.
These changes come amid a series of injuries affecting Arsenal's defense, with several key players sidelined. Arteta emphasized the need to adapt, stating, "Adapt again like we have done all season and have some freshness in the team which I think is important as well."
Arsenal aims to secure a top-eight finish in the Champions League group stage, and a victory against Dinamo Zagreb would significantly bolster their position.
