Tottenham Hotspur have the honour of hosting the first North London derby of the season on Sunday, when they welcome bitterest foes Arsenal to their capital home.
Ange Postecoglou's men have one win, one draw and one defeat on their 2024-25 report card so far, most recently suffering a 2-1 loss to Newcastle United before the international break.
Also thrashing Everton and playing out a 1-1 stalemate with Leicester City in the opening weeks of the campaign, Tottenham are smack-bang in the middle of the table in 10th place, three points worse off than their visitors.
Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Tottenham's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the clash with Arsenal, who drew 1-1 with Brighton & Hove Albion in their most recent affair.
