Tottenham Hotspur v Arsenal

The Arsenal midfielder refused to shake Spurs star Gallas' hand
at the Emirates when the bitter North London rivals clashed back in
November.
The French duo did not speak for a year as Gunners team-mates
and Nasri, 23, has no intention of calling a truce at White Hart
Lane this evening.
Nasri said: "Against Tottenham, I refused to shake Gallas' hand.
He said to the Press 'It's a pity for him'.
"Next time I will not shake his hand, either. I'm generous with
my family and friends but I am spiteful as well. Defenders who give
me kicks know that very well."
Problems between the two started after Gallas claimed in his
autobiography Nasri was a bad influence at Euro 2008.
SunSport revealed ahead of Tottenham's dramatic 3-2 win at
Arsenal back on November 20 - when Harry Redknapp's men came from
two goals behind - that Nasri would ignore Gallas.
And this mirrored Wayne Bridge's decision to snub his former
team-mate John Terry ahead of Manchester City's clash at
Chelsea.
Wenger, set to welcome back Bacary Sagna from a knee injury,
said: "There is a lot at stake. We have not to go with any fear and
wait for Spurs to play. We will try to play our game."
