The Gunners have been running away with the league of late, but Conte and his Lilywhites will want to put a stop to that at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

We believe that Hugo Lloris will retain his place between the sticks, with a back three of Ben Davies, Eric Dier, and Cristian Romero. Meanwhile, Ivan Perisic and Matt Doherty will line up in the wing-back roles for the day.

In midfield, the match unfortunately comes too soon for Rodrigo Bentancur, meaning Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg is partnered by Yves Bissouma, who has struggled to get going in a Spurs shirt.

However, there is good news as Dejan Kulusevski returns in time to start on the right, reuniting that deadly trio alongside Harry Kane and Heung-min Son.
