Bellerin picked up and ankle injury earlier this month and was expected to be available for last weekend’s Premier League game at Swansea, but in the end he was not risked.
Coquelin has not been seen since the Gunners’ 3-3 draw at Bournemouth on January 3.
While Gibbs has been missing for Arsenal with an ankle problem since Boxing Day.

However, Theo Walcott, who last played in the 2-1 defeat to Manchester City last month, is not yet fit to return.
“From last week I think Bellerin, Coquelin and Gibbs are back in the group but not Walcott," Wenger said.
“These three should be available.”
