The next few games will go a long way to shaping Arsenal's season, with today's derby against Spurs followed by their Champion League opener away to Atalanta then a showdown with title rivals Manchester City at the Etihad.
Mikel Arteta would have wanted a fit and firing squad for those massive tests but skipper Martin Odegaard will miss all three and £100million man Declan Rice is suspended for the clash with Tottenham Hotspur.
New signing Mikel Merino is still sidelined as well but the Gunners are Betfred's 11/8 favourites at the home of their bitter rivals, with Ange Postecoglou's men 15/8 outsiders.
That's probably because Spurs remain a little flaky, with a win, a draw and a defeat so far, but they certainly have the firepower to ask Arsenal a few questions.

Tottenham Hotspur vs Arsenal top betting tips
It will be fascinating to see how Arteta rejigs his midfield and the general consensus is that he will field Thomas Partey and Jorginho as sitters, with Kai Havertz dropping back to provide the creativity.
Cards are always a good option for punters in this fixture and Partey was booked when Arsenal won 3-2 on their last trip across North London. The Ghana midfielder is 15/8 at Bet365 to be carded today while opposite number Yves Bissouma is 9/5 in the same market with Betfred.
Both of last season's derbies were thrillers, with BTTS and over 3.5 goals landing in both. Arsenal might play it a bit more cagey here but Postecoglou will attack as always so I'm expecting goals at both ends again.
The bookies share that view, with over 2.5 strikes just 8/15 at Betfred and BTTS priced 4/9. But over 3.5 strikes still pays a decent 11/8.
James Maddison will be a threat for Spurs and I like the 5/4 available for the playmaker to have an effort on target.
Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Newcastle top tips
The other game in Premier League today should be a good watch as well as Newcastle head to Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Despite grumbles over a lack of transfer activity, the Magpies have got off to a good start with two wins and a draw so far.
The same can't be said of Wolves, who have collected just one point so far, and a slump that started towards the end of last term has continued into the new campaign.
They've still been scoring though and that's why combining BTTS with over 2.5 goals pays just 4/6 today at Betfred.
Stats bets provide better value and I like the evens available at Betfred for Joelinton to have a shot on target.
Wolves midfielder Joao Gomes has been booked in two of this three outings this term and is 7/4 to go into the book again.
Dundee United vs Rangers top betting tips
Rangers headed into the international break on a downer after a 3-0 derby defeat at Celtic Park left them five points behind already in the SPFL Premiership title race.
They can ill afford to drop any more points at Tannadice today but face a tricky test against a Dundee United side who sit one point and one place above them in the early table.
Jim Goodwin's men lost their opening League Cup group game to Falkirk but have since gone eight games unbeaten, winning six of those matches.
Rangers look dodgy in defence so backing BTTS looks good at 5/6. If you combine that with over 2.5 goals it boosts the price to 6/5.
Ibrox striker Cyriel Dessers flopped in the derby once more but has scoring regularly agains the other Premiership sides. He's a tempting 13/10 for anytime scorer today and backing him to net with a header pays a whopping 11/1 at Bet365.

Reckon Arsenal could a bit flat without Odegaard, no playmaker and two holding midfielders. Unders would be my shout if taking on goals.
Possibly Macca. I reckon Spurs will grab a couple and Arsenal will do enough to get at least 1. They still have Saka, and Havertz who is in great scoring form so think they’ll find the net.
We shall see! Good luck with your bets 👌🏼
Plus remember, this IS Spurs we’re taking about here 😂
Lost – good shout macca. Spurs are terrible.

Should’ve gone yellow cards in the Spurs game lol
Fortunately on corners as a side bet, so far so good.
Crystal Ball time,if only we had them😆
No Odegaard, Rice, Merino, Calafiori, Zinchenko or Tomiyasu & a bench full of kids I’ve never heard of…..Arteta masterclass! Didn’t play well either so it’s massive! I know it’s only Spuds but still a derby win away from home. If we weren’t robbed with that ridiculous Rice red card against Brighton we’d have 4 from 4 from a couple brutal fixtures. We’ll still have tons of injuries next week but this at least sets us up for a free swing away at a full strength City side. Our defense is next level so taking the under 2.5 goals at evens. Solid bet I reckon!
Gunner, i.m from the camp of no matter your level of sport, Events are Decided on the Squad who put their to the line as opposed who can.t compete due to to injuries, suspensions etc, .All week we have listened to who,s not gonna be competing for Arsenal as opposed to who is..Had a nibbble at 5/4last night but they drifted to 6/4 today.as in my opinion their squad is superior…

Not a criticism Elvis , but sometimes you do btts and then add btts and overs- if you leave overs out is it worth small bet on 1-1 score for btts as its either bet down or gonna be over unless 1-1🤔
I take any advice on board bud as we’re always learning in this game but I can’t fathom what your suggestion is to be honest
Do u understand urself at all or u don’t understand d betting tips given?
Sorry maybe not written well after few glasses of vino😂just thought if you only bet on btts small bet on 1-1 correct score worth try as any other score would be btts and over or if 1-0 2-0 etc btts would be down anyway just personal thought excuse the rambling
