Arsenal midfielder Emile Smith Rowe is ready for a FA Cup playing return.

Smith Rowe is set to make his first Arsenal appearance for almost four months at Oxford on Monday.

The England international has been sidelined since the defeat at Old Trafford back in September.

But The Athletic claim he's in line to start for the first time this season against the League One side.

Smith Rowe has played only 46 minutes all campaign and hasn't been picked from the off for eight months.
