Tottenham Hotspur vs Arsenal Preview

This North London derby couldn’t have come at a worse time for Tottenham Hotspur as their season looks like it is about to implode.

The Lillywhites have been flying high recently and there have been talks of them even winning the Premier League if Manchester City and Liverpool’s season capitulates.

However, Mauricio Pochettino’s men come into this game off the back of consecutive losses to Burnley and Chelsea and their confidence would have been battered when they welcome their in-form illustrious neighbors.

The return of Harry Kane was expected to lift Tottenham’s spirits but it has coincided with two losses and their fans would be hoping that changes here.

Arsenal fans can dream of playing in the Champions League next season again as they close in on a top four finish.

The race for the final Champions League place is tight but if the Gunners win here, they would move one point behind Tottenham in 4th place.

Unai Emery’s men come into this game off the back of three consecutive wins where they scored ten goals and conceded just one.

These are good times for the Gunners and their fans will be praying that it lasts through to the end of the season.

If Arsenal wins this gam, they would move to within one point of Spurs and the race for the third position would be back on with Manchester United’s form continuing.

Bookmakers have priced Tottenham up as steady favourites to come out on top in this game while goal markets point to a high-scoring game as over 2.5 goals is currently trading odds-on.

Harry Kane is clear favourite with bookies to score the opening goal of the game followed by Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Heung-Min  Son.
