Arsenal fans can rest assured that Granit Xhaka's absence from Friday's Premier League clash against Southampton is due to illness, and he should be fit in time for their pivotal match against title rivals Manchester City on Wednesday. Fabio Vieira is taking Xhaka's place in midfield, with Arteta saying to Sky Sports: “Unfortunately this morning Granit wasn’t feeling very well. I am excited to see Fabio Vieira in the starting line up. It is very important, like every game. It will be a great and unbelievable atmosphere tonight. We are looking forward to the game. Hopefully we have learned a lesson. We know what we have to do but we have to prove it in the moment. Hopefully we will see a very different story.” With Oleksandr Zinchenko also replacing Kieran Tierney at left-back, Arsenal fans can look forward to seeing these two changes in action as they take on Manchester City.
