The North London Derby is shaping up to be another sensational clash, with both teams desperate to return to form in the Premier League with a victory.

Arsenal currently hold the bragging rights, having triumphed in the reverse fixture at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium 1-0, thanks to a header from Gabriel Magalhaes. In fact, Spurs haven’t managed to defeat the Gunners since the 2021/22 season.

In what promises to be a fiercely contested match, both sides will be without several key players due to injuries.

Arsenal have been hit hard, especially with the recent news that Gabriel Jesus sustained an ACL injury against Manchester United in the FA Cup third round. Bukayo Saka, Ben White, Ethan Nwaneri and Takehiro Tomiyasu are all ruled out, while Riccardo Calafiori remains doubtful.

Spurs, who have been dealing with an injury crisis for most of the season, are not any better off themselves for their trip to Arsenal. Richarlison is set to return for the big match, but many others remain sidelined.
