Saka set up Leandro Trossard for the opening goal at the Emirates Stadium.
He then got in on the act himself after the hour mark, scoring his sixth goal of the season to double the home side's lead.
However, he failed to see out the match and was even booked by referee Istvan Kovacs as he left the field.
His injury comes just days before Arsenal return to Premier League action against Burnley on Saturday afternoon.
