Arsenal set for timely injury boost vs Real Madrid

Arsenal are set for a timely injury boost ahead of the Champions League quarter-finals against Real Madrid next month.

The Gunners face the reigning European champions in the last eight of the competition. They have a daunting task on their hands.

Arsenal will host Los Blancos at the Emirates Stadium on April 8. Ahead of the game, they could receive a much-needed boost.

Bukayo Saka has been sidelined with a hamstring injury since late December, but he is expected to return to full training by March end.

Saka could be in the squad to face Fulham on April 1 and we won't be surprised if he makes the starting XI against Madrid.

Arsenal will go into the double-legged tie as underdogs, but they will be aiming to spring a surprise with a strong performance.

Mikel Arteta has shown that his side can step up against the best and they have the opportunity to silence critics by beating Madrid.
