The Gunners travel to the Ghencea Stadium for their Group H UEFA Champions League clash aiming to make it nine straight wins in all competitions.
Arsene Wenger has several injury doubts ahead of the trip to Eastern Europe and may be forced to shuffle his pack.
Jens Lehmann nears ever closer to a return but for the time being Manuel Almunia will continue to deputise for the German.
Alexander Hleb is struggling with a knee injury following Mark Noble's crunching challenge at the weekend, and has been rated at '50/50'.
Wenger will also wait on Emmanuel Adebayor (thigh), Mathieu Flamini (knee), Abou Diaby (ankle) and Robin van Persie (ankle), who all face late fitness tests.
The French tactician will leave it late to make a decision on his starting XI, and may call on the likes of Gilberto Silva, Theo Walcott and Nicklas Bendtner to fill in for his absentees. |
