Arsenal welcome North London rivals Tottenham to the Emirates for this Saturday afternoon early kick off in the Premier League. If it's half the game as the corresponding fixture last year - where Spurs came back at the death to earn a fiesty 4-4 draw - then we'll be in for a cracker! With five minutes left to play in last year's derby, Arsenal were cruising 4-2 - only to be silenced by shock goals by Luca Modric and Aaron Lennon in Harry Redknapp's first game as Spurs manager. It was a result which both kick-started the Redknapp revival at White Hart Lane and saw Arsene Wenger's fragile side slump to a series of defeats. In recent years, Arsenal have relied on former striker Emmanuel Adebayor for goals against the old foe, but with the Togo hitman now at Manchester City, responsibility will fall to some of the Gunners' youngsters to make names for themselves - such as Danish striker Nicklas Bendtner, who came off the bench to head with winner against Spurs in this fixture two years ago.
