Arsenal star Declan Rice will miss the north London derby against Tottenham after being sent off against Brighton.
The Gunners midfielder was booked in the first-half of Saturday’s Premier League meeting with Brighton. He was given his marching orders five minutes into the second period for seemingly kicking the ball away – a moment before being clattered by Joel Veltman.
Rice will be set to serve a one-match suspension – ruling him out of the trip to Tottenham which immediately follows the international break on 15 September.
