The 25-year-old Senegalese international was replaced at half-time in Wednesday's 2-0 Group H defeat of Olympiacos FC, a result which took Standard to within two points of their second-placed visitors. A subsequent scan revealed a pulled hamstring muscle, meaning Sarr is unlikely to return for the game at Arsenal but should be available to face AZ Alkmaar in Liege on 9 December.
