The first North London derby of the season ended with Arsenal the victors in the third round of the Capital One Cup, the Gunners' celebrating a 2-1 victory over Tottenham.
Mauricio Pochettino’s side entered the game riding high off the back of three consecutive wins in the league and Europe, a run of form that has left them just one point behind struggling Arsenal.
Arsene Wenger’s side arrived with crisis talk bubbling away amongst fans after back-to-back defeats to Dinamo Zagreb and Chelsea. They could ill-afford a third loss tonight, with disciplinary issues dogging a side who had lost three players in their past two games.
Pochettino was yet to lose a derby game at the Spurs helm and is keen to continue his success in the League Cup, which he reached the final of last season.
