Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger is pinning his hopes on Patrick Vieira being fit to lead the Gunners in their vital Champions League clash against Dynamo Kiev tomorrow.
Vieira came through training yesterday and today but Wenger will leave it until the last minute to decide whether the captain has recovered sufficiently from a thigh injury.
Fredrik Ljungberg is Arsenal’s other doubt with an ankle problem and, of the two, Vieira is more likely to play.
Defender Martin Keown (calf) is out while non-flying striker Dennis Bergkamp has not travelled.
SQUAD: Lehmann, Stack, Cole, Lauren, Campbell, Toure, Cygan, Edu, Vieira, Gilberto Silva, Parlour, Pires, Ljungberg, Wiltord, Henry, Kanu, Aliadiere.
