LONDON (Reuters) - Arsene Wenger believes Arsenal will remain the major force in north London even if Tottenham Hotspur overturn decades of dominance to finish above the Gunners in the Premier League this season. Victory at White Hart Lane on Sunday would almost certainly ensure that second-placed Spurs finish above Arsenal for the first time since 1995, but Wenger said a one-off achievement could not outweigh a long run of success. Victory would also silence talk among Arsenal supporters of St Totteringham's Day, the moment each season when they celebrate the mathematical certainty of finishing above Spurs. "It is certainly one of the few times where, if you look at people's opinions, Spurs are favourites," said Wenger. "He will be fit enough to start because it was more precautionary to leave him on the bench (against Leicester)," said Wenger.
