ARSENAL will have Abou Diaby available for the visit of Burnley after the midfielder recovered from injury, but the Gunners will be without defender Sol Campbell.

Diaby has been out of action since picking up a knee ligament injury in the 2-1 first leg Champions League last 16 defeat at Porto on February 17.

But he could feature at the Emirates on Saturday. However, Campbell has been ruled out after suffering a groin problem at Stoke last Saturday, although he should be back for the home second leg against Porto.

“Campbell is not fit but Diaby is in the squad,” said boss Arsene Wenger. “He had a first successful test today.

“I hope that Sol could be back for next week (against Porto).”
