Monaco could be without winger Yannick Ferreira Carrasco for their Champions League round of 16 second leg against Arsenal.

The Belgian scored against Arsenal in the first leg at the Emirates Stadium, striking to put Monaco 3-1 ahead and firmly in pole position to qualify for the quarter-finals of the competition.




However, Ferreira Carrasco hurt his ankle in Monaco's 3-1 win over Evian yesterday and was forced off during the course of the Ligue 1 game.

 


The 21-year-old is now set to undergo tests later today and is considered a doubt for his side's crucial clash against Arsenal on 17th March.

Monaco will be crossing their fingers that Ferreira Carrasco's injury is not serious and he is in contention to feature against Arsene Wenger's men.
