THOMAS PARTEY is set to miss Arsenal's top of the table clash against Manchester City.
The Ghanaian midfielder has been an integral part to the Gunners title charge this season.
With Arsenal now failing to win either of their last two fixtures, the absence of their key midfielder will not come as good news.
Partey is expected to miss the clash after picking up a muscular injury, according to the Athletic.
The 29-year-old's absence could see Jorginho in line for his full debut.
Arsenal have been unchanged in their last six games in a row before tonight.

The two sides recently faced off in the FA Cup with Man City coming out on top after Nathan Ake secured a 1-0 victory.
Partey picked up a knock in that game and was forced off at half-time but returned for their next league clash.
However, recent head-to-head clashes in the Premier League have seen the Cityzens come out on top on each of the last 10 occasions.
Fortunately, the injury is not thought to be serious.
