Emiliano Martinez Injury: Late call to face Gunners

Martinez (back) is a late call for Saturday's match against Arsenal, according to manager Unai Emery. "We will train this afternoon. He didn't train yesterday, but it is very important for him how the passing hours are to feel better. Until the last moment, I don't know if he will be available or not tomorrow."

Martinez is going to need some testing as he heads into Saturday's massive outing, as the goalie is still dealing with a back injury and will need some training to decide if he can play. This is something to monitor for the club, as the goalie is their regular in net when fit, at one point, one of the best in the world. However, if he were to miss out once again or is unable to start, Marco Bizot should remain the starter in net.
