Arsenal are travelling to Goodison Park for an important Premier League match against Everton on Saturday (April 5).

The Gunners are playing at the iconic Merseyside ground for the final time before Everton's relocation to a new ground and will be aiming to end on a high.

Mikel Arteta has lost a plethora of players ahead of the important clash. Brazilian centre-back Gabriel is out after suffering a hamstring injury and has been ruled out for the rest of the season. Right-back Jurrien Timber is also likely to miss out this important match while Ben White's participation is also not guaranteed.

Amid the numerous issues, Bukayo Saka's return to the side has been a positive for them. The England international returned to action against Fulham after more than three months and showed his class with the winning goal of the match. Ahead of the final couple of months to the season, Saka is going to be a pivotal part and Arteta acknowledged that.

"It's like always, after coming through a difficult situation, a really nice one can appear. I think all the hard work and all the difficult moments he had in the last four months, they were paid off just by receiving that love, that support and that admiration from all our people," the Arsenal manager said on Saka's return.

Bukayo Saka is coming back from a long-term injury, and is likely to be integrated slowly into first-team action for 90 minutes. With a crucial Champions League match against Real Madrid and the horizon, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta will be cautious in using Saka in the Premier League match today against Everton. The Spaniard didn't want to give a direct answer about Saka's involvement today, but it is likely that the England ace will be starting at the Goodison Park.
