With both teams proving a wealth of attacking options, we've gone for a 4-3-3 formation, despite Arsenal frequently playing with five at the back this season.
Goalkeeper: Hugo Lloris
Petr Cech hasn't been at his best this season while Lloris remains comfortably one of the top 'keepers in the world. An easy choice
Right-Back: Serge Aurier
It's a tough call between the two but Hector Bellerin just misses out. Aurier had an inauspicious start to his Spurs career - he got sent off - but the Ivorian finally seems to have won over Mauricio Pochettino with a series of consistent performances, while Bellerin's game can still be mistake prone when defending.
Centre-Back: Jan Vertonghen
The Belgian has made 177 league appearances since signing for Spurs in 2012 and has been one of the Premier League's most consistent defenders in that time. Strong in the tackle and always looking to get forward, he also has 98 caps for Belgium
Centre-Back: Laurent Koscielny
When fit he is first choice for Arsenal and the French national side. A no nonsense defender who was crucial in ending Arsenal's trophy drought, Koscielny has won 3 FA Cups with the Gunners and is their on-field captain this season.
Left-Back: Nacho Monreal
Like a fine wine, Monreal only gets better with age and recently he has been nothing short of a revelation. Always solid defensively, this season he has chipped in with 4 goals and 2 assists on top. He has been capped 21 times by a Spain side full of options in his position
Central Midfield: Henrikh Mkhitaryan
A new signing to Arsenal but his class is obvious. He was inconsistent at Manchester United after they spent over €30million on him, but he showed against Everton last week what he is capable of when given the chance, as Borrusia Dortmund fans will attest.
Central Midfield: Christian Eriksen
It's easy to forget the Dane is still only 25 years old. Since Spurs signed him for a bargain €15million from Ajax he has gone from strength to strength, running the midfield and possessing an impressive goalscoring rate from midfield. If he continues to progress at this rate he will go to major heights.
Central Midfield: Mesut Ozil
Since Ozil arrived in the Premier League, no one has come close to creating as many chances as he does. The World Cup winner has an eye for a pass that no one else does and makes every player around him look better. He has just signed a new contract with Arsenal which could see his play improve even more.
Forward: Son Heung-Min
Son became the most expensive Asian player in history when he signed for Tottenham, but he has certainly backed up that fee since. 26 goals in 87 league appearances and a relentless work rate make him an important member of this team
Forward: Harry Kane
He is the Premier League top scorer and arguably the best striker in the world right now.
Forward: Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang
The Gabonese international has only played one game for the 'Gunners' but he is one of football's global superstars. Electric pace, heading ability and great feet helped him score almost a goal a game for Borussia Dortmund, and he has already opened his account for Arsenal.
