Tottenham kept their starting lineup in a 2-2 draw against Liverpool, while Arsene Wenger decides to pick Pierre Aubameyang on the back, with Wilshere, Ozil and Mkhitaryan backed up by Arsenal.
Tottenham soon took the lead and in the 9th minute Harry Kane and Dele Alli almost made a dangerous end if Mustafi failed to stop Alli's pass for Kane in the Arsenal penalty area. Taking a deep backup helped Arsenal defend well, but they proved to be quite stuck in the attack.
Despite tight ties, Arsenal struggled to deal with Harry Kane. On 27 minutes, the striker broke the trap kick to catch Eriksen's cross, but he again hit the bar in the unassisted. A shot away from the ball after only two minutes of Dembele made the Arsenal goal again startled phen.
At the end of the first half, Arsenal began to find space at the two edges to exploit. But in addition to a shot from Bellerin far away, no more opportunities created between the two teams before halftime.
First half: Tottenham 0 - 0 Arsenal.
