Hincapie To Start | 4-3-3 Arsenal Predicted Lineup Vs Tottenham Hotspur | OneFootball

Arsenal will welcome Tottenham Hotspur at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday evening as they look to secure a win at home in the London derby. The Gunners were held to a 2-2 draw away at Sunderland before the international break, so they would be keen on securing a positive result versus Spurs this weekend.

Mikel Arteta will set his players up in a 4-3-3 formation and is expected to make one change to his starting XI for this game. Piero Hincapie could play from the start of this clash because Gabriel is unlikely to recover in time for this game.

Defence

David Raya will feature in goal for the North London club after he shipped in a couple of goals in his last appearance. Piero Hincapie will play alongside William Saliba at the centre of the Arsenal defence as they hope to keep a good defensive shape at the back during the 90 minutes.

Jurrien Timber will fill in as the right-back, while Riccardo Calafiori hopes to prove his worth as the left-back if he can recover in time for this game. Both of them will look to go forward and express themselves in the Tottenham half.

Cristhian Mosquera and Ben White will provide cover for the defensive positions on the bench.

Midfield

Eberechi Eze, Martin Zubimendi and Declan Rice will make up Arsenal’s midfield. Their main focus would be to establish their dominance over the opposition at the centre of the park and engineer some clear-cut chances in the final third.

Christian Norgaard will have to settle for a place on the bench as he waits for his chance to influence the game in the second 45 minutes if required.

Attack

Bukayo Saka would try to weave his magic from the right flank, while Leandro Trossard looks to prove his worth as the left-sided wide player.

Mikel Merino will lead the line for the North London club up top. He would be keen on finding the back of the net in this London derby.

Ethan Nwaneri and Max Dowman will make up the numbers on the bench and might come on to make an impact in the latter stages of the contest if the Gunners are in need of a goal.
