Martin Odegaard, the talented midfielder for Arsenal, has been out of action since late August due to an ankle injury sustained while playing for his country, Norway. However, there is good news for Arsenal fans as Odegaard may make his much-awaited return in their upcoming Champions League match against Inter Milan this week.
Since his last appearance for the Gunners in the 1-1 draw against Brighton, Odegaard has been diligently working on his recovery and has recently resumed light training. With Arsenal's midfield in need of a creative spark, his return could not come at a better time. While he was not able to play in their recent match against Newcastle, there is hope that he will be ready to take the field in Milan on Wednesday, followed by another crucial game against Chelsea on Sunday.
In other injury news, there were concerns over the availability of defender Gabriel Magalhaes due to a knee problem, but he was able to play alongside William Saliba in their last game against Newcastle. Mikel Arteta, the manager of Arsenal, can breathe a sigh of relief as the team's defensive options are slowly improving. However, Riccardo Calafiori is still expected to be unavailable, and Takehiro Tomiyasu is still working his way back from a knee injury.
In the Champions League, Arsenal has had a strong start, winning two out of their three games and not conceding a single goal. They secured victories against Paris Saint-Germain and Shakhtar Donetsk at home and were held to a goalless draw away to Atalanta. On the other hand, Inter has had a solid start as well, with a goalless draw against Manchester City and wins against Red Star Belgrade and Young Boys. Both teams are yet to concede a goal in Europe this season.
As Arsenal prepares for their upcoming match against Inter, fans are eager to see how the team will line up. There is speculation that Odegaard will make his return to the starting lineup, alongside other key players such as Ben White, who recently recovered from a knock. The predicted Arsenal XI includes Raya, White, Saliba, Gabriel, Timber, Saka, Merino, Rice, Martinelli, Havertz, and Trossard.
For those wondering where to watch the match, it will kick off at 8 pm on Wednesday, 6 November, and will be broadcasted live on TNT Sports 1. For those unable to tune in on TV, the match will also be available for streaming on the Discovery+ app. As Arsenal continues to push for success in the Champions League, fans can stay updated with all the latest news, exclusives, and analysis by signing up for the club's newsletter.
