Bukayo Saka returned to first-team training after a hamstring injury, raising hopes he can feature in Arsenal’s critical Premier League showdown with Manchester City at the Emirates this weekend. Captain Martin Ødegaard’s recovery, however, remains in doubt. Saka had missed three matches but impressed in early-season form before his injury. His comeback provides a timely boost as Arsenal seek momentum, while Ødegaard’s shoulder issue may leave Arteta without his playmaker. Both players’ fitness will heavily shape Arsenal’s performance.

Arsenal captain Martin Ødegaard aggravated a shoulder problem against Nottingham Forest, leaving the pitch after 17 minutes. The injury is a major setback ahead of their Champions League opener and Premier League showdown with Manchester City next week. Already nursing a shoulder knock from a clash with Leeds, Ødegaard pushed through to play for Norway during the break, even scoring. But a fresh challenge from Morgan Gibbs-White forced him off, raising fears of another extended absence.

Erling Haaland delivered a stunning five-goal masterclass in Norway’s 11-1 demolition of Moldova, further cementing his reputation as one of the game’s most ruthless strikers. He also provided an assist as Norway stayed top of Group I with maximum points. Haaland struck a first-half hat-trick, added two more after the break, and set up Felix Myrhe’s opener. Martin Ødegaard and Rangers’ Thelo Aasgaard, who netted four off the bench, contributed, but it was Haaland’s relentless finishing that defined a one-sided night in Oslo.
