Here is how we predict Arsenal and Swansea City will line up this weekend:

To be played on Saturday 15th October 2016 at 14:00. Venue: Emirates Stadium, London

Odds: Arsenal 2/7, Draw 9/2, Swansea 9/1

The Premier League action finally returns this weekend after yet another international break, with Arsenal welcoming Swansea City to the Emirates Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

The Gunners will be looking to build on their form prior to the break, which sees them sitting third in the table with 16 points from their first seven matches, just two points behind leaders Manchester City.

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger

As for Swansea, they are struggling at the opposite end of the table after collecting only four points to date, and new manager Bob Bradley has a tough task to get a much needed win in his first game in charge.

In early team news, Arsenal are without Per Mertesacker, Aaron Ramsey, Carl Jenkinson, Danny Welbeck and Olivier Giroud, while Francis Coquelin is unlikely to recover from a knee injury and Lucas Perez is a minor doubt.

Swansea cannot call on Nathan Dyer while winger Jefferson Montero and striker Fernando Llorente are both rated at 75 per cent to recover from ankle and rib injuries respectively.
