Needing just a point to be sure of top spot in the Champions League league phase, perfect Arsenal host Kairat on the eighth and final matchday on Wednesday evening.
Mikel Arteta's men have swept aside the competition in Europe this season - taking 21 points from 21 on offer - and confirmed their place in the last 16 with a statement 3-1 win over Inter Milan at San Siro last week.
However, the Gunners continue to falter domestically and were beaten at the Emirates for the first time this season on Sunday, suffering an excruciating 3-2 Premier League loss to Michael Carrick's Manchester United.
Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Arsenal’s latest injury and suspension news ahead of their showdown with Kairat, who currently sit bottom of the 36-team table with just a point to their name.

Status: Major doubt
Type of injury: Muscle
Possible return date: January 28 (vs. Kairat)
Both Piero Hincapie and Riccardo Calafiori were seen in training before the Man Utd fixture, but only the former made the matchday squad at the weekend.
However, Calafiori is ostensibly in with a good chance of making his comeback from a muscular problem on Wednesday, even if he is just an unused substitute.
Status: Out
Type of injury: Ankle
Possible return date: February 14 (vs. Wigan Athletic)
Arsenal's only guaranteed injury absentee at the time of writing, Max Dowman suffered a moderately severe ankle injury in an Under-21s friendly last month and is still a few weeks away from returning.

Likewise, Mikel Merino also picked up a milestone caution at San Siro, so the Spain international - who may have been in contention to start this match - will watch on helplessly too.
