Arsenal v Tottenham Hotspur
Arsenal v Tottenham Hotspur: probable starters in bold, contenders in light

Tottenham will make the short trip to the Emirates more confident than ever of showing they are the dominant force in north London.

Arsène Wenger, who boasts 10 consecutive league wins at home, needs to come up with a plan to stop the striker, who is rested after missing England duty. Graham Searles
