Arsenal and the Premier League are in discussions about the status of the north London derby, reports @guardian_sport.
Arsenal and the Premier League are in discussions regarding whether Sunday’s north London derby will go ahead, with Mikel Arteta’s side heavily affected by injuries and Covid-19.
At least 12 players could be unavailable for the match at Tottenham and, with the league’s rules stating a game can be called off if a team are unable to field 13 outfield players and a goalkeeper, Arsenal are investigating whether they will be able to request a postponement.
Breaking news: NLD postponement imminent!

It has to start somewhere and during this season else it will drag on with many teams already playing catch up with fixtures. It's only one case of Covid as well. ACON, loans and suspensions are the club's own making.

Not at Arsenal's expense simple as that, how can you have a fair competition when other teams namely Tottenham have already benefited from the situation.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
So if you suspend it then Spurs are hard done by, having another fixture suspended to add to the list which will no doubt clog up their schedule.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The rules are not only for Spurs. They apply to all teams
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Haven't the other teams had more cases of Covid though?
You need to put a foot down somewhere to stop teams taking advantage. It's unfortunate for Arsenal but luck is a big part of football after all.

We had 5 against Brentford. Where was the uproar?
Actually we dont know how many Covid cases we have right now. The media saying we have 1 with Odegaard but who knows?

I suppose there will be some enjoyment in seeing Spurs catch West Ham by the end of the season with their 10 games in hand.
