Arsenal manager Unai Emery is "100%" confident Mesut Ozil and Sead Kolasinac are mentally ready to play against Burnley on Saturday.
The pair were left out of the Gunners' season-opening win over Newcastle because of "further security fears" after being involved in a carjacking attempt by an armed gang in July.
Midfielder Ozil and left-back Kolasinac have now returned to training.
"It's good news for us because they can help us in matches," Emery said.
"My focus is to be positive and focus on making sure the players are 100% in their minds here.
"I want to help them to be with us, back to normal training, thinking about football. Above all, I want them to be able to focus on each training session and each match.
"They came back to training with us on Tuesday. I think each session gives us good information and good different options with them also to take the decision if they're going to be with us on Saturday or be in the first XI. But we are going to wait until tomorrow, our last training session."
