Arsenal's Absentees Against Tottenham - A Boost for Spurs
Tottenham head into this third round of Premier League action with a
full-strength squad. On the flip side, Arsenal's Spanish gaffer Mikel Arteta
will be without two key players who've been crucial in recent times.
Declan Rice will be watching from the stands due to the red card he picked up
in Arsenal's previous league match against Brighton.
Rice's importance to Arsenal's midfield is evident from the fact that he's
featured in all three of the Gunners' league fixtures since the season kicked
off!
Alongside Rice, Arsenal are likely to be without the services of their
Norwegian midfield maestro Martin Odegaard. It's worth noting that Odegaard
has also been ever-present for the Gunners in their league campaign so far.
