Highlights Tottenham haven’t played since their thrashing by Newcastle and Ange Postecoglou could make changes to his team.
Arsenal will be well rested too, with five days separating their 5-0 win over Chelsea and their trip to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Arsenal need to win to maintain their Premier League title hopes, while Tottenham are still targeting Champions League qualification.
The Premier League title race took another twist this week as Liverpool lost a second successive game and it looks like they might be fading away ahead of the final few games of the season. Arsenal had no such problems as they hammered Chelsea 5-0 to move to the top of the table, while Manchester City put four past Brighton to keep the destiny of the trophy firmly in their hands.
Next up for Arsenal is a trip across North London to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Spurs would relish playing a key role in preventing the Gunners from winning a first league title in 20 years while they also have aspirations of their own in the final weeks of the season, with Champions League qualification still a possibility.

GIVEMESPORT Key Statistic: Tottenham have only won one of their last six meetings with Arsenal, with the Gunners coming out on top four times and their last meeting, in September, ending in a 2-2 draw.

Ben Davies will likely replace Udogie in the Spurs line-up, while Micky van de Ven and Cristian Romero should partner each other in the centre of the defence ahead of goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario.
Tottenham right-back Pedro Porro was substituted early on in the second half against Newcastle and Ange Postecoglou confirmed the withdrawal was due to an injury concern. He said:
