Wigan boss Steve Bruce has the luxury of a full-strength squad available for Sunday's visit of Barclays Premier League leaders Arsenal.

Ryan Taylor is fit again after a month out with a rib injury while fellow midfielder Kevin Kilbane has recovered from a bruised foot.

The pair could both be competing for one spot on the left wing with Jason Koumas, who performed ably in the position in last week's draw at Manchester City.

Honduras winger Wilson Palacios is set to feature against the team with whom he had a trial last year.

Robin van Persie could return to Arsenal duty against Wigan after injury problems which have seen him play just eight matches this season.

The Dutchman played an hour of a behind-closed-doors match against Colorado Rapids in midweek and came through unscathed, although Wenger admitted he was "tired."

Theo Walcott is out with a thigh injury while Abou Diaby suffered a calf complaint in the midweek victory over AC Milan and Emmanuel Eboue is still suspended.
