Arsenal vs Tottenham team news
Riccardo Calafiori faces a late fitness test on a hip problem, while Mikel Arteta has been coy on exactly which of captain Martin Odegaard, Viktor Gyokeres, Gabriel Martinelli, Kai Havertz, Noni Madueke and Gabriel Jesus will be ready to return on Sunday.
Radu Dragusin, Archie Gray, Ben Davies and Kota Takai are all nearing their returns, though Dominic Solanke, Dejan Kulusevski, James Maddison and Yves Bissouma remain sidelined.

Arsenal vs Tottenham prediction
Arsenal, even without Gabriel, will be confident of shutting Spurs out and securing a victory to open up an 11-point gap over their neighbours. While Spurs can point to an impressive away record, built on an impressive defence and sturdy midfield, it is in attack where they are often lacking.
Arteta will look at the likes of Mathys Tel or Richarlison with little fear, while the likes of Bukayo Saka will believe he can add to his tally of two goals and four assists from his last four meetings.
