Arsenal saw off local rivals Tottenham 1-0 in Sunday’s north London derby as Mikel Arteta’s side got back to winning ways following the draw against Brighton before the international break.
Much of last season’s success, as the Gunners took the title race to the final day of the Premier League season, was built upon the team’s strength at the back and after three clean sheets in four games already this term, the Arteta’s defence again appears up for the challenge.
