Tottenham Hotspur suffered an injury blow over the international break as Hugo Lloris picked up a knock.
The goalkeeper returned back to north London early with a thigh injury.
But following assessments back in the capital, Antonio Conte is expecting good news regarding his return.
Conte: “We hope to see him on Saturday”
Conte has revealed that Spurs are hopeful the Frenchman will be available to face Arsenal.
The 35-year-old is set to be assessed in training on Friday morning.
Fraser Forster is the man who will come in to replace him if he is unable to recover in time.
“Tomorrow, we have another training session to check their physical condition and then to make the best decision for Saturday.
“Hugo is one of the players with some physical problems, but we hope to see him on Saturday.”
