Arsenal face Sunderland in a crucial Premier League fixture at the Emirates Stadium tomorrow afternoon. It is a great chance for Arsenal to close the gap on Manchester United to a single point. Despite Sunday's disappointment we are in superb form and should be able to defeat Sunderland in a must win fixture tomorrow. Once again the injury curse has hit Arsenal at the crucial end of the season. There are many players who will be missing tomorrow including, Song, Fabregas, Walcott and Van Persie. This is a big blow for the side but hopefully the fringe players will step up like they did on Wednesday against Leyton Orient and pull out the victory to give us an excellent chance to win the Premier League. Aaron Ramsey has also returned to the squad but will most likely play a role from the bench towards the end of the game. This is great news as he is a very talented footballer and will undoubtedly be better than Denilson has this season. I am now going to look at the starting XI Wenger should choose for the important match.
Goalkeeper
Wojciech Szczesny will return in goal after being rested for the Orient game. He will need to forget the disappointment of his error on Sunday and continue to play as well as he has been for the rest of the season.
Right Back
Bacary Sagna will return at right back. He has been solid this season and will hopefully continue to do so on Saturday.
Centre Back's
Laurent Koscielny will return from injury to partner Johan Djourou at the back. Despite Sunday the duo have been incredible at the back and long may this continue for the Arsenal.
Left Back
Gael Clichy will return at left back and will no doubt now have an eye for goal after his brilliant effort on Wednesday.
Defensive Midfield
Abou Diaby will fill in for Alex Song in the more defensive midfield role. He is a very talented player and will hopefully showcase this in the next couple of very important games.
Centre Midfield
Jack Wilshere will return to the centre of midfield after a game off on Wednesday. He will still be disappointed because of Sunday but will be able to put this behind him and play as well as he has been this season.
Attacking Midfield
Samir Nasri will start in the Cesc Fabregas role for the Arsenal tomorrow night. He has been superb this season and hopefully this can continue.
Right Wing
Nicklas Bendtner will start on the right-wing for Arsenal. He was brilliant on Wednesday and hopefully can score a couple again.
Centre Forward
Marouane Chamakh will start in the absence of Robin Van Persie. He scored on Wednesday and this should inspire him to play like he did at the start of the season for Arsenal.
Left Wing
Andrey Arshavin will return to Arsenal's left wing tomorrow. He played well against Birmingham and hopefully will produce again.
This team should defeat Sunderland despite missing some key figures. It is still a strong side and I believe this will show through in a 3-1 victory for the Arsenal.
