Mesut Ozil is expected to start in Arsenal’s clash with their north London rivals Tottenham in the Carlin Cup.

Özil started against Chelsea and made the joint highest number of interceptions in midfield (2) but was dispossessed three times. The 26-year-old also maintained a 90 percent pass accuracy and made the joint highest number of key passes (2).
Tottenham Predicted starting line-up: Michel Vorm; Kieran Trippier, Eric Dier, Jan Vertonghen, Danny Rose; Dele Alli, Tom Carroll; Son Heung-min, Christian Eriksen, Clinton Njie; Harry Kane.
