Bukayo Saka, Willian and Mohamed Elneny were training for Arsenal on Saturday as they prepared for Sunday’s clash with the Wolves.
Saka and Willian came out with injuries last Sunday in a goalless draw with Leeds.
Mohamed Elneny tested positive for coronavirus during the recent international hiatus and has been in quarantine.
But all three trained with the first team as they prepared for the tough game at the Emirates.
Elneny is unlikely to start as he is not fit for the match, but could be named to the bench.
Nicolas Pepe is out when he starts the first of a three-game suspension.
Last season, the North London game ended in a 1-1 draw and Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta says he expects another tough match.
“Obviously it’s different and you could see how they finished the second half in the last game [against Southampton]”Said Arteta.
“We know that we have to be prepared to go against both situations, in the formation of the three behind they also have different options to play and are a threat in different areas, so we have to be prepared as we always do.
“[It is] a very tough game, for sure it is one of the most organized teams in the league.
“They have been together for a long time, they have shown in the big games against big rivals how difficult they can do it, so I expect a difficult game against a team that dominates almost every aspect of the game, I would say. They know exactly what to do. “
If Arsenal are to score three points, they will have to keep Wolves’ attacker Adama Traore quiet.
And midfielder Dani Ceballos has warned his teammates to be on the lookout for the threat from the speedy winger.
“I think he is a very special player that any coach in the world would love to have on their team,” Ceballos told Arsenal.com.
“Aside from the fact that he is really intimidating in terms of his physique, I think he has really improved on a technical level and in terms of cutting in or opening, plus he also scores goals.”
