Tottenham have a huge encounter against north London rivals Arsenal straight after the international break, but what would be the worst case scenario to return to for Ange Postecoglou and Co.?
Tottenham return from their international break with a huge fixture: the North London Derby against Arsenal. Ange Postecoglou will be hoping to return to winning ways after a mixed start to the Premier League season.

Spurs began with a draw away to newly-promoted Leicester City having taken the lead and thoroughly dominated proceedings, only to concede a second-half equaliser to Jamie Vardy. They followed this with a 4-0 thumping of Everton to add plenty of encouragement to the start of the season.

However, after once again dominating on their away trip to Newcastle, Spurs fans made the long trip back to London with no points to show for it after a late winner from Alexander Isak.

A large chunk of the Spurs squad have since joined up with their respective national teams, with Spurs in action after the international break on Sunday, September 15. A lot could happen between now and then so football.london has taken a look at what a nightmare international break could look like for Tottenham.
