Tottenham Hotspur vs Arsenal 
The last 2 matches that Spurs played against Arsenal at 2.40am in the morning, we ended up victorious for both matches. So will we make it 3 in a row?
Arsenal should continue with their intentions to field their “kids” for Carling Cup matches. So expect many of the big names to be rested. Goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski, Johan Djourou, Emmanuel Eboue and Kieran Gibbs are all set to feature having been unused substitutes at Sunderland, but youngsters Jay Emmanuel-Thomas, Benik Afobe, Chuks Aneke and Henri Lansbury are also likely to be involved. Midfielder Alex Song will serve his one-match suspension following his red card on Saturday, but the Gunners do not yet know how long captain Cesc Fabregas will be out for with a hamstring problem.
With West Ham looming next weekend and then another Champions League game in midweek, Harry will field a vastly different side for the Carling Cup. Stipe Pletikosa will start in goal and Hutton will get a nod for right back as Corluka and Kaboul are out. We will get to see Sandro Ranieri make his debut in midfield as the likes of Lennon, Bale, Huddlestone and Modric will be rested. While it would seem like we are fielding a reserve team, I am excited to see what Sandro brings to the table.
COYS!!!
