Arsenal have received a welcome fitness boost ahead of Sunday's north London derby, as Alexandre Lacazette returned to training on Wednesday.
Lacazette missed Sunday's victory over Bournemouth with a groin injury, which Emery insisted at the time wasn't serious. While the French striker won't be risked for Thursday's Europa League tie with FC Vorskla on Thursday, he should return to the squad for Sunday's game.
Lacazette has enjoyed a consistent run in the team this season, scoring five goals in 12 Premier League games so far this season. He's started to develop an understanding with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang as the two have often started together. Lacazette's return is a welcome boost for the Gunners, who go into the derby three points behind rivals Spurs.
