Fixture Focus - Spurs (5 Mar 2016)

Tottenham Hotspur vs Arsenal FC

There is no better time for this fixture to happen. Both emerged as losers during their midweek league games, so this serves as a kind of showdown against each other.

Pochettino knew that this will be a big game and likely post a first team lineup, although he is aware of the upcoming match against Europa finalist favourites Borussia Dortmund. Dembele could make it back for the team selection after his long absence due to injury, and Alli may appear in the substitute bench.

Arsenal has been in not-so-good form recently; they had won only twice out of the last six league games, and is plagued with injuries including their first choice keeper Cech and Koscielny.

This match is viewed as the battle for second place. Whoever wins this will have the right to chase after Leicester.

COYS!
