Arsenal trio Danny Welbeck, Mesut Ozil and Francis Coquelin could all be back in contention for the game against Watford that follows the international break.
The Mirror reports that the both Welbeck and Ozil are due back in full training on Monday, while Coquelin has already returned.
Laurent Koscielny is also an outside chance for the game against Marco Silva’s men, but the French defender is not expected to return to first-team training on Monday.
The news comes as a timely boost for the Gunners, who sit six points behind leaders Manchester United and Manchester City.
Welbeck was forced off with an injury against Chelsea when Arsenal laboured to a 0-0 draw away from home in a disciplined performance.
Coquelin suffered a hamstring injury against League One side Doncaster Rovers in the Carabao Cup back in September, while a knee injury has kept Ozil out of the team of late.
