Arsenal will hope any injury to Lacazette is not serious as they are already without captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, who contracted malaria while on international duty with Gabon last month.
“He felt his hamstring so we don’t know,” said Arteta, when asked by Sky Sports about Lacazette.
“We have to rotate players, we have players who didn’t recover from the game on Thursday. That is the risk. You cannot change those players every game.

With Lacazette coming off injured, Eddie Nketiah came off the bench to score and snatch a point for Arsenal.
