There’s not too much longer to wait until Premier League action returns for Arsenal with international fixtures now well underway.
For the Gunners, eyes turn to the North London Derby, a game where they will be without midfielders Declan Rice and Mikel Merino. Rice is serving a one-game suspension after his red card vs Brighton, while Merino has to wait for his debut after suffering a shoulder injury during training.
The game against Brighton ended in a 1-1 draw, ending the Gunners’ 100 percent win record this season going into the first international break. The game against Tottenham will be the perfect opportunity to bounce back with a potential North London Derby win providing a big boost.
