Martin Keown, who has missed Arsenal's past three games with a knee injury, will be fit for the Champions League match against Olympique Lyon in France next week.

Keown: Will be back as Gunners take on Lyon (PhilCole/Allsport) |
Since Keown was injured a fortnight ago, Arsenal have paired Tony Adams with Igor Stepanovs.
However, £2 million Latvian Stepanovs is ineligible because he played in a Champions League qualifier for Skonto Riga.
Swede Fredrik Ljungberg is also likely to make the trip, and striker Dennis Bergkamp is willing to make the journey by car to Lyon.
After their poor start to the Champions League second phase, which has seen them drop five points in their first two matches, it is vital that Arsenal secure at least four points from their back-to-back clashes with Lyon to move from the bottom of the group.
