Mikel Arteta jokes that he has no memories of the last time Arsenal played Tottenham Hotpsur at this stage of the season. That night the Gunners were battling for Champions League qualification. This time around the stakes are even bigger.

The Premier League title could be in the offing if Arsenal are able to get three points at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. That's something they've only managed once before though.

It's absolutely crucial that Arteta gets his team selection spot on. Here football.london takes a look at who he could start in the match.

Arsenal goalkeeper David Raya celebrates after his team's first goal during the Premier League match between Wolverhampton Wanderers and Arsenal FC at Molineux.
Raya was actually busy against Chelsea despite the dominant scoreline. Expect him to be up to scratch against Spurs yet again after a decent couple of performances recently.1 of 11
Ben White of Arsenal celebrates after scoring a goal to make it 2-0 during the Premier League match between Arsenal FC and Chelsea FC at Emirates Stadium
Not one, but two goals for Ben White against Chelsea. He might not repeat that at Tottenham, but you can expect him to be just as consistent.2 of 11
Arsenals William Saliba
Saliba wasn't actually at his best against Chelsea, but he can be forgiven for having one off day. Particularly if he puts it behind him against Spurs.3 of 11
The Brazilian had a minor injury scare towards the end against Chelsea. He'll be fine to start against Spurs though.4 of 11
The Japan international was fit again to play Chelsea and looked top drawer. Neither Jakub Kiwior nor Oleksandr Zinchenko have fully convinced recently so expect Tomiyasu to start once again.5 of 11
