Bukayo Saka was ruled out of Arsenal's game against Leeds on Saturday after sustaining an injury in the warm-up at Elland Road.
The unspecified injury meant a late change for the Premier League leader, with Noni Madueke named in place of Saka.
Arsenal went into the game on the back of a three-match winless run in the league, which had seen its lead at the top cut to four points.
Kai Havertz was named in the starting lineup in the league for the first time in almost a year after hamstring a knee issues. The Germany international scored in Arsenal's Champions League win against Kairat Almaty on Wednesday.
"It's been a long time but he looked very good (against Kairat)," said Arteta. "With the type of game that we expect, we decided to go with him. We have plenty of time to change things and understand context we have later in the game to make changes."
