Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur are gearing up for a key match in North London that may have a significant impact on both the race for the top four slots and the Premier League title. Spurs had a 15-day vacation after their humiliating 4-0 loss to Newcastle before this match.
Aston Villa has strengthened their hold on fourth place throughout this prolonged stretch, and Tottenham is under increasing pressure to recover and regain their footing in the top-four race. However, following a loss to Aston Villa at home, Arsenal appeared to have lost steam in the title fight.
But victory against Wolves two games in a row and a convincing win over Chelsea have sparked their goals again.
Kick-off time and location
The game is set to begin at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday, April 28, 2024, at 2:00 PM BST.
Group News Spurs are worried about the injury to left-back Destiny Udogie and the status of right-back Pedro Porro. Nevertheless, Radu Dragusin may be included; Ben Davies and Emerson Royal are capable substitutes.
With his return from injury, Richarlison strengthens the Spurs' offensive line. Heung-min Son and Brennan Johnson, who have been playing well, will probably be his teammates.
Spurred on by their recent achievements, Arsenal has little concern regarding injuries; Jurrien Timber is the only one missing.
The center defender is unlikely to play in the derby despite having recently made a comeback for the Under-21 team and scoring a goal.
Record head-to-head.
Arsenal leads the all-time head-to-head record with 86 wins against Tottenham's 67 wins and 55 draws.
Possible starting lineup: Raya Gabriel, White, Saliba, and Zinchenko Odegaard; Rice; Partey Saka; Havertz; and Martinelli.
