Former Arsenal goalkeeper Graham Stack has expressed his belief that current goalkeeper David Raya will recover from a costly mistake made during a recent match, in time for the upcoming North London Derby against Tottenham. Stack's comments come as Arsenal prepares to visit their local rivals, Tottenham Hotspur, who are in a troubled position with no Premier League wins in their last eight matches. The Gunners are currently only two points ahead of Manchester City in the title race, making this match crucial for maintaining their lead.

Arsenal, despite having a strong start to the season, has faced recent challenges, including two consecutive draws in their league matches, the most recent being a draw against bottom-placed Wolves where Raya’s error was notably significant. Mikel Arteta will be looking to improve his team's form and restore confidence with a victory against Spurs, especially as Manchester City is gaining momentum following their recent win against Newcastle.

The match is set to be a pivotal moment not only for the teams involved but also for the title race, as victory for Arsenal could extend their lead to five points over Manchester City, while a loss could see them slip dangerously close to their title rivals. Fans and analysts alike will be keeping a close eye on Raya's performance as well as the overall team dynamics going into this highly anticipated match-up.
