Tottenham travel to North London Derby rivals Arsenal on Sunday, with their sight set firmly on the top four spots.
Jose Mourinho has a great record against both Mikel Arteta and Arsenal and will be looking to extend that on Sunday. A win for Spurs would help to further illustrate the gap in quality between the two sides, with the balance of power very much shifting from red to white in recent years.

This is how we see the team lining up.
Goalkeeper: Hugo Lloris
Defence: Serge Aurier, Davinson Sanchez, Toby Alderweireld, Sergio Reguilon
Aurier was brilliant in midweek so I can see him retaining his place, the rested Alderweireld and Reguilon should return fresh to the XI.
Midfield: Hojberg, Ndombele; Bale, Lucas, Son.
Mourinho can traditionally go more defensive in these ‘bigger’ games, but Arsenal look vulnerable in defence recently and an attacking front four could force the Gunners into mistakes and see Spurs take the advantage. The quick trio of Bale, Lucas and Son can get beyond Kane to cause serious damage.
Striker: Harry Kane
Kane does have a knock, but I can’t see Mourinho not playing him in this massive game. There should be an opportunity to rest him next Thursday, with Spurs taking a 2-0 advantage from the first leg vs. Dinamo Zagreb.
