ARSENAL seek revenge by taking on north London rivals Tottenham in a match where BOTH teams could be at the top of the table.
The two teams are respectively first and third, as they rank second for Manchester City in the top flight standings.
Arsenal are facing a mild injury crisis and could do without it SEVEN first team players after the international break.
But after Spurs put an end to the Gunners’ hopes of playing in the Champions League last season, this is the perfect opportunity for Mikel Arteta’s side to take revenge at home.
Both sides scored strong wins before the international break, with Arsenal beating Brentford 3-0 and Antonio Conte’s side having six against Leicester City.
Arsenal have won their last two games against Spurs at Emirates.
