FA Cup Round 3 Preview
Arsenal will entertain their north London rivals, Tottenham Hotspur, on Saturday in their FA Cup third round tie. Spurs' in-form striker, Emmanuel Adebayor is set to miss the clash after being stretchered off the pitch in the Lilywhite's victory against Manchester United at Old Trafford on Wednesday. Adebayor has been described as 'unstoppable' by Spurs boss Tim Sherwood, after the striker scored the opener at Old Trafford. He then had to be subbed and needed ice packs everywhere on his body, according to the Tottenham manager. Arsenal's last trophy success was the 2005 FA Cup and the London club will be keen to bring that dry run to an end this season.
Arsenal in confident mood
Arsenal are top of the Premier League and will go into their derby cup clash confident of success.
