Arsenal vs Tottenham team news

There could be a couple of high-profile debutants on display for the Gunners.

Big-money signing Viktor Gyokeres trained with his new team-mates for the first time on Tuesday, and Mikel Arteta has since confirmed that the £64m man will be afforded his first minutes.

The same can be said of Spanish centre-back Cristhian Mosquera, who was signed from Valencia earlier this month. Mosquera joined the squad in Singapore but did not feature in the Gunners’ narrow 3-2 win over Newcastle at the National Stadium on Sunday. He should get a run out in Hong Kong.

On the injury front, there is a concern for Riccardo Calafiori, who was withdrawn injured against Newcastle. Mikel Arteta hopes that the Italian has avoided a serious problem but he will not feature against Spurs. Arsenal will also be without long-term absentee Gabriel Jesus, as well as Gabriel and Jurrien Timber.

Spurs have nine current injury cases. There are those that have been out for a while, like Radu Dragusin and Dejan Kulusevski, while James Maddison and Dominic Solanke could be touch-and-go for inclusion here, with Maddison coming back from a knee injury, and Solanke suffering with an ankle issue.

Bryan Gil, Manor Solomon, new signing Kota Takai and Rodrigo Bentancur all missed the double-header against Wycombe and Luton, and Bentancur is the only one of that quartet that should play some part here. Frank ruled left-back Destiny Udogie out of the Arsenal game after the Italian suffered a tweak in his knee.

Arsenal vs Tottenham prediction

These are two sides in completely different scenarios.

One is settled and is continuing to add to their already strong squad, while the other is embarking on another new project with a head coach that will demand more new signings.

Arteta will want to get Gyokeres and Mosquera integrated into the side quickly, and if the pair play a part here, it will increase the Gunners’ chance of victory that much more.

Arsenal are an almost complete item, while Spurs are still a work in progress. The game will be entertaining, but Arteta’s side should come out on top.
