Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang remains a doubt until the last minute to start as Arsenal host Napoli in the Europa League quarter-final.

The first leg kicks off this evening at the Emirates at 20.00 UK time (19.00 GMT).

The 29-year-old has scored 22 goals in all competition for the Gunners this season, but has been struggling with illness over the last few weeks.

He was only a substitute in the last two Premier League games and Sky Sport Italia report he is still on antibiotics.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang remains a doubt until the last minute to start as Arsenal host Napoli in the Europa League quarter-final.

The first leg kicks off this evening at the Emirates at 20.00 UK time (19.00 GMT).

The 29-year-old has scored 22 goals in all competition for the Gunners this season, but has been struggling with illness over the last few weeks.

He was only a substitute in the last two Premier League games and Sky Sport Italia report he is still on antibiotics.

If Aubameyang can’t make it, then Alex Iwobi is expected to lead the way for Arsenal.

Laurent Koscielny is recovering from a foot injury and Granit Xhaka has been struggling with a groin strain.

Meanwhile, it’s reported over 6,000 Napoli fans have flocked to London for tonight’s game, with many more already living in the Capital.

As not all the tickets were purchased via the official channels for away fans, that means we could see Napoli supporters peppered around the ground.
