Now, Mikel Arteta’s side are out to book their place in the last eight, buoyed by the extension of their lead at the top of the Premier League over the weekend.

Manchester City’s draw at West Ham followed their 2-0 win over Everton, meaning they moved nine points clear at the summit.

Odegaard, the captain, continues to be troubled by a knee injury, despite returning momentarily during the north London derby.

Leandro Trossard was back in training on Monday after picking up a knock against Mansfield in the FA Cup, and then pulling out of the travelling party for the first leg at the last minute.

Mikel Merino is a long-term absentee with a stress fracture in his foot.

Leverkusen, meanwhile, Martin Terrier was forced off just two minutes into the second half against Bayern Munich at the weekend, after being on the receiving end of a heavy challenge from Nicolas Jackson, which saw the Chelsea loanee sent off.

Elsewhere, Lucas Vazquez, Loic Bade, Mark Flekken and Arthur are all ruled out.

Leverkusen had their chance to take a lead to north London, but they had it snatched from them at the death last week with a stoppage-time penalty.
