The Brazilian suffered the injury when conceding a penalty during Manchester City’s 1-1 draw with Liverpool on Sunday. Ederson stayed on to take the penalty and Alexis McAllister canceled out John Stones’ opener, but it was quickly beaten by Stefan Orr Replaced by Tega. Arsenal leads Liverpool on goal difference, with third-placed Manchester City just one point behind.
The Gunners will travel to the Etihad Stadium on March 31.
Ederson will also miss Saturday’s FA Cup quarter-final at home to Newcastle and Brazil’s upcoming international friendlies against England and Spain.
“Eddie’s injured. I’m ready like always,” Ortega said.
“It’s a special moment to play in this big game with the whole world watching. It feels good.
“I enjoyed every second of it. What happened was not new – I was ready for it.”
