Team News: Petr Cech fit, Aaron Ramsey missing for Arsenal

Cech fit, Ramsey missing for Arsenal

Arsenal goalkeeper Petr Cech has been declared fit for the North London derby with Tottenham Hotspur, but Aaron Ramsey misses out through injury.

Ramsey is said to be suffering with a slight groin injury, but Cech has recovered from the knock which forced him to be substituted during last weekend's 5-1 win over Everton.

Arsene Wenger makes two changes in total, with Jack Wilshere replacing Ramsey and Mohamed Elneny coming into the team for Alex Iwobi.

Top goalscorer Alexandre Lacazette remains on the bench, with Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang keeping their spots in the starting lineup.

Tottenham Hotspur boss Mauricio Pochettino has decided to stick with the same team which recorded a 2-2 draw at Liverpool.

January signing Lucas Moura is named on the bench - as is Erik Lamela after his goal against Newport County in midweek - but Fernando Llorente does not feature in the 18-man squad.

Tottenham Hotspur: Lloris; Trippier, Sanchez, Vertonghen, Davies; Dier, Dembele, Eriksen, Dele, Son; Kane Subs: Vorm, Aurier, Rose, Wanyama, Sissoko, Lamela, Moura

Arsenal: Cech; Bellerin, Koscielny, Mustafi, Monreal; Elneny, Xhaka, Wilshere; Ozil, Mkhitaryan, Aubameyang Subs: Ospina, Chambers, Kolasinac, Maitland-Niles, Iwobi, Welbeck, Lacazette
