A lip smacking London derby awaits us on Sunday as Arsenal travel to White Hart Lane to face Tottenham which will prove consequential for both teams for almost different reasons. The Gunners come into this encounter with their heads held high and chins up after a resilient display at the Allianz Arena against Bayern Munich, which however proved inconsequential at the end as the Bavarians marched on to the next round. Spurs on the other hand, suffered an embarrassing loss at home to Benfica last night.
Can the Gunners break their shackles and grab a much needed win? We here at Soccersouls provide Arsenal’s strongest squad for Sunday’s blockbuster.
Wojciech Szczesny:
The Polish number one returns to the starting line up after missing the game against Bayern through a ban. He will have to face a Tottenham squad who have blown hot and cold in recent weeks but are capable of scoring against anyone when they are at full throttle. Szczesny needs to be at the top of his game and will have to pluck out numerous saves to nullify the Tottenham’s threat if Arsenal are to win at the Lane.
