Arsenal v Tottenham: match preview
Do not reach for the reading glasses: Arsenal’s treatment room is, at the time of writing, empty before Sunday’s north London derby. Mikel Arteta hopes for a victory that would provide further evidence times are changing at the Emirates, but his opposite number needs to win a few people over too. Nuno Espírito Santo’s bright start in charge of Tottenham has wobbled, but their first win at their rivals’ home in the league since November 2010 would add significantly to his stash of credit.
