THE LOWDOWN
ARSENAL
- Arsenal return to Premier League action knowing they can go four points clear at the top of the table with victory here in the North London Derby.
- Emile Smith-Rowe is out after undergoing surgery on a groin problem, whilst Mikel Arteta will check the fitness of Oleksandr Zinchenko, Thomas Partey and Kieran Tierney.

THE PREDICTION
An exciting and feisty encounter is expected between these bitter North London rivals with the stake’s high terms of their respective league table positions. Arsenal have been in brilliant form so far this season, winning six of their seven top flight fixtures, whilst Tottenham are coming off the back of a 6-2 hammering of Leicester. Both sides contain significant quality going forward with the visitors hugely boosted by the return of form of Heung-Min Son. However, Arsenal’s formidable record at home to Spurs cannot be discounted and when taking into account the momentum and performance levels of their squad, backing the Gunners to win has to be favoured, although both teams to score does look on the cards.
TIP: ARSENAL TO WIN AND BOTH TEAMS TO SCORE
