Ramsey fit for Arsenal

The Wales international has been missing since February 10 after a third hamstring issue of the season but has returned to training ahead of schedule and could feature at Loftus Road.

Jack Wilshere (ankle) will miss out, as will Mathieu Flamini (hamstring), Abou Diaby (calf) and Mathieu Debuchy (shoulder) but Francis Coquelin could play despite fracturing his nose in Sunday's win over Everton.

Provisional Squad: Ospina, Szczesny, Bellerin, Gibbs, Chambers, Monreal, Mertesacker, Koscielny, Gabriel, Coquelin, Ramsey, Rosicky, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Cazorla, Ozil, Sanchez, Walcott, Welbeck, Giroud, Akpom.
