LONDON, Oct 20 (Reuters) - Arsenal have defensive problems for their Champions League match against Fenerbahce with central defender Kolo Toure ruled out with a shoulder injury.

Toure joins fellow central defender William Gallas (hamstring) and right back Bacary Sagna (knee) on the unavailable list for the Group G match in Istanbul on Tuesday.

Better news for the Gunners, who have four points from their opening two matches, is that striker Nicklas Bendtner and Johan Djourou are both fit for the trip.

They both missed Saturday's 3-1 Premier League win over Everton. Bendtner has recovered from an ankle injury while defender Djourou has been given the all-clear after suffering concussion playing for Switzerland.
