Tottenham have been handed a major boost after Micky van de Ven and Dominic Solanke were passed fit to face Arsenal.
Van de Ven missed the 2-1 defeat at Newcastle before the international break with a knee issue, while new £65million signing Solanke has been sidelined since he suffered an ankle problem on his debut on the opening weekend of the season.
Van de Ven was forced to pull out of the Netherlands squad during the international break.
But, ahead of Sunday’s north London derby at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Spurs boss Ange Postecoglou said: "It’s fairly positive. Micky's good, he's trained all the way through the international break and it was good for him to stay with us to build him back up so he's ready to go.
"Dom's improved as well and trained the back half of this week. We still have two days to go with those guys so hopefully they get through training ok and are available."
Spurs may be without Yves Bissouma, who suffered an injury on international duty for Mali.
“We had the last of the boys in late [on Thursday] so we'll have a look at them today and everyone's reporting all well except for Biss,” Postecoglou said on Friday. “He's got a bit of an issue, but we'll have a look at him over the next couple of days and see how it settles.”
On Bissouma, Postecoglou added: “It’s not serious, but he’s getting treatment today. We’ll see how it goes.”
“It’s a tweak in his groin. The initial reports is it’s not serious which means there is a chance for Sunday, which tells me it’s nothing significant.
“If he doesn’t make Sunday, then I’ll assume he’ll be right for after that. At the same time, he’s just come off a long flight, you never feel great anyway, we’ll see how he trains tomorrow and that will give the best indication.”
Richarlison and young striker Will Lankshear have been ruled out. Postecolgou said: “Richy's still got a bit of work to do, alongside Will Lankshear who is still in rehab.”
