Gibbs has had a short spell out with a knee problem but is recovering well and could be available for Arsenal's clash with Everton on Sunday.
Wenger has no new injury worries following the 2-0 victory away to Wolves in midweek that lifted the Gunners back to within one point of second-placed Manchester United.
"We should not have any bad news from last night. The squad should be the same," the manager told Arsenal TV Online.
"We could have Gibbs available to be part of it again too. We'll make the decision at the end of the week.
"He is back in normal training. It is just whether he is fit or not."
Diaby has been sidelined since picking up an ankle knock in the game against Bolton and Wenger recently admitted he did not know when the midfielder might be able to return.
But Wenger has been encouraged by his recent progress and hopes there are no further setbacks.
"He is having a gradual test," said Wenger. "He had the first yesterday - that was positive.
"He has another today so we'll see what comes out of it. At the moment the response is good."
Wenger is set to freshen up his starting XI at Goodison Park, given the amount of games his squad have played recently in both domestic and European competition.
"There are always one or two changes," he said. "Some players have played a lot and we have some fresh, quality players on the bench.
"Some are not completely match-fit like (Robin) Van Persie and (Nicklas) Bendtner but in midfield there may be one or two changes."
