Some Arsenal players are unavailable because of self-isolation following contact with someone infected with COVID-19.

Government guidelines recommend self-isolation for 14 days from possible contact with someone infected. The players involved are still within this time period and would therefore not be available for tonight's match. They are expected to return to training on Friday.

"The medical advice we have received puts the risk of them developing Covid-19 at extremely low. However, we are strictly following the Government guidelines which recommend that anyone coming into close contact with someone with the virus should self-isolate at home for 14 days from the last time they had contact.

"The players will remain at their homes until the 14-day period expires. Four Arsenal staff, who were sitting close to Mr Marinakis during the match will also remain at home until the 14 days are complete.

Surely WestHam and Pompey must take the same stance seeing as Arsenal have played them since the Olympiacos game. That then goes out to the teams they've also played and so on.
