?In this week of mega derbies we shift our focus on the North London derby as Tottenham Hotspurs welcome their neighbors Arsenal to White Hart Lane. Both the teams enter into this derby fixture on the back of good form. Arsenal are coming on the back of the thrashing of Aston Villa at Emirates while Spurs are also coming fresh over a successful week which saw them advance to Capital One cup finals and also a comprehensive win over West Brom.

Overview

Santi Cazorla is in sublime form for the visitors as he has led them to successive wins over the past few weeks along with a crucial win at Etihad. Olivier Giroud too has been immense for the Gunners. The return of Theo Walcott and Mesut Ozil has only strengthened them over the last month or so.

Ex-Barcelona man has been a revelation for the gunners this season


Spurs too have their talismans heading into this highly charged derby. Harry Kane and Christian Eriksen have successfully bailed the Lily-whites from shambles throughout the season and will hope to continue their sublime form against arch-rivals tomorrow as well.

Spurs will rely on this man to score against the gunners.


Team News

Spurs have a fully fit squad to choose from which has been confirmed by Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino.

Arsenal has a few players side-lined for this tie as Jack Wilshere and Alexis Sanchez are ruled out due to injuries. Danny Welbeck too is doubtful as he has failed to reach match fitness.

The last time these two London heavyweights met this happened.

Probable Lineups

Spurs - Lloris; Walker, Fazio, Vertonghen, Rose; Mason, Bentaleb; Eriksen, Dembele, Lamela; Kane

Arsenal - Ospina; Bellerin, Mertesacker, Koscielny, Monreal; Ramsey, Coquelin; Ozil, Cazorla, Walcott; Giroud

TFM predicts a 2-2 draw.

The match will be telecasted on Star Sports 4 at 18:15.
