It’s almost here, the second North London Derby of the 2022/2023 campaign, and boy are we ready! Remember the Gunners beat Tottenham 3-1 on October 1st.
Mikel Arteta’s team is healthy (minus Jesus and Nelson), and the squad’s training sessions this week have reportedly been going very well.
On the Hotspur front, the Daily Cannon is reporting as many as five Tottenham players could be sidelined for Sunday’s match. They are: Dejan Kulusevski, Rodrigo Bentacur, Richarlison, Yves Bissouma and Lucas Mora. That would be good news for the Gunners.
However, no mater who Antonio Conte puts on the pitch this weekend, Arsenal will be the favored club to win the three points.
With that said, here’s my predicted Arsenal starting XI for Sunday at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium…
[4-2-3-1]
Nketiah
Martinelli, Odegaard, Saka
Partey, Xhaka
Zinchenko, Gabriel, Saliba, White
Ramsdale
Predicted final score: Tottenham Hotspur 2 – ARSENAL 3
