Arsenal are set to face Tottenham Hotspur at White Hart Lane on Saturday afternoon, with a couple of big names certain to miss out on the starting XI.
Both Laurent Koscielny and Petr Cech have been confirmed absent through injury, with the latter likely to be out for up to a month. The absence of the experienced goalkeeper means David Ospina is set to start in his first Premier League game of the month.
Danny Welbeck was also rested, only brought on as a sub in the midweek loss to Swansea on Wednesday evening, meaning that he could be brought back into the starting XI.
With Alexis Sanchez and Aaron Ramsey in such poor form as of late, squad rotation and tired legs could have to be taken into consideration.
With all of that said, Arsenal’s north London opponents will certainly prove their credentials this weekend, with them posing serious title challengers due to their fine consistency.
Will this XI be enough to beat the home side?
