Old friends Mikel Arteta and David Moyes will reunite once again as they lead out their Arsenal and Everton sides into another Premier League meeting this weekend.
The former had previously played under the latter in his playing days for the Toffees, before moving to the Gunners, with the experienced head coach playing a key role in developing the Spaniard into the manager he is today.
While there is some clear mutual respect there, the main aim for Arsenal and Everton will be the opportunity to earn another crucial three points in the Premier League. With the Gunners eyeing a chance to push for top spot, and the Toffees looking to recover from a first defeat of the season last time out, here's a look at everything you need to know for Arsenal vs. Everton.
Arsenal plays host to Everton on Saturday, November 24, with kick-off scheduled for 3 pm U.K. time (BST). For supporters in the U.S., that is 10 am Eastern Time, or 7 am Pacific Time.
The match won't be available to watch in the U.K. due to laws surrounding a blackout on broadcasting matches at 3 pm on a Saturday, while highlights will be available after the match.
Meanwhile, in the U.S., the clash between Arsenal and Everton will be available on fuboTV, USA Network, Telemundo, UNIVERSO for subscribers.
Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta confirmed before the match that Bukayo Saka will be sidelined for an unknown amount of time, after the winger appeared to pick up an issue with his thigh in the side's draw with Bayern Munich.
"He's got another MRI this afternoon [Friday] because he had quite a lot of fluid in the area," the manager said in his pre-match press conference. "So it was difficult to understand the extent of the injury.
"But we will know more probably tomorrow. We need a few more scans and opinions from the specialists."
That adds Saka to the likes of William Saliba and Christos Tzolis, who are unavailable for the clash, with the former still recovering from a back injury, while the latter has a muscular injury that should see him out of action for a few more weeks.
In good news for the Gunners, Piero Hincapie is back available for the side, after the defender picked up an ankle injury in a recent post-match cooldown session.
Everton, on the other hand, has a clean bill of health, with Moyes capable of calling upon his full squad to travel down to London with him on Saturday.
It remains to be seen who could start and who could be dropped for the Toffees, as the team looks to respond to defeat last time out.
