Arsenal are fielding an interesting lineup for the North London Derby - injuries have forced them to use Alex Song at centre back, which means a start for Francis Coquelin as a holding midfielder. Tottenham Hotspur have injury problems of their own, but their core is intact - the midfield battle promises to be very interesting here. On paper, we're going to have a high scoring game, so this match will probably end up 0-0 and be dreadful or something.
