Alexis Sanchez likely to miss Aston Villa clash....


Alexis Sanchez is set to miss Arsenal's clash with Aston Villa on Sunday.

Gunners top scorer Sanchez has got a hamstring injury and Arsene Wenger says it is "unlikely" he will be risked.

Danny Welbeck and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain are both also ruled out of the game and face a race to be fit for the North London derby the following weekend.

Wenger said: "We will test him (Sanchez) tomorrow. It is unlikely that I will risk him on Sunday. We'll see.

"Welbeck is very short. He could be available for Sunday maybe, but it would be a big gamble after such a long time out. He's definitely available for next week.

"I think next week's game at Tottenham will come a bit early for him (Oxlade-Chamberlain)."
