Tottenham and Arsenal clash for a crucial North London derby today as the host looks forward to revenge their 3-1 loss to the Gunner in October last year.
Both teams have known each other so well and know how good their attackers are and have hence, prepared very well for this derby.
Tottenham and Arsenal clash for a very important 3 points.
The most recent North London Derby will be played on Sunday between league leaders Arsenal and top-four contender Tottenham.
The Gunners, who defeated Spurs 3-1 in the season’s first meeting, may need all six points to keep a five-point advantage over their nearest rivals, Manchester City, while Spurs are in dire need of three points to keep up their push for a top-four finish.
Arsenal needs to get back to winning ways
Last time out, Newcastle stopped Arsenal’s five-game league winning streak by holding them to a 0-0 stalemate at the Emirates Stadium. However, since then, Arsenal has swept Oxford aside in the FA Cup with a 3-0 success.
Although Mikel Arteta’s team may have been unlucky not to have won that game, they can rebound against Spurs on Sunday because the hosts are having trouble maintaining consistency.
Tottenham has only won one of its previous four home games, losing to Newcastle, Liverpool, and Aston Villa. Last time out, a potent Spurs squad labored to a 1-0 FA Cup victory over Portsmouth.
Our major wager for this game is a win for Arsenal as the Gunners seek their first victory at the home of their local rivals since winning the EFL Cup in 2015. Spurs occasionally appear a touch fragmented.
Tottenham seeks for revenge against Arsenal
Prior until recently, Spurs’ home form carried them through the season, but they have faltered, recording just two victories in their previous six games across all competitions. A 2-1 victory for the visitors has some appeal in the correct score market, but they have only failed to score in one home game this season, and they should at least be able to score on Sunday.
With four goals in as many games since the World Cup break, Eddie Nketiah is now in top form for Arsenal. With a goal in the derby on Sunday, the 23-year-old can keep up his impressive play without Gabriel Jesus, who is sidelined.
Head to Head Comparison
Tottenham have defeated Arsenal in 6 of their previous 7 encounters at home in all competitions. Furthermore, both teams have both scored in 3 of their last 4 Premier league meetings.
Tottenham ‘s Team News
For Today’s North London Derby, Antonio Conte will be hoping to have four players return from injuries.

But Lucas Moura is still unavailable.
Arsenal’s Team News
The only injured players for Arsenal to worry about for the trip to Tottenham are Gabriel Jesus and Reiss Nelson.
There won’t likely be any shocks in Mikel Arteta’s starting lineup for the encounter on Sunday.
Match Fact
Tottenham have scored and conceded in 4 of their last 6 Premier League matches.
Conclusion
Both Tottenham and Arsenal will play an attacking tactics in order to achieve their aim. Arsenal wants to remain at the top and compete for the league title while Tottenham seeks for revenge against Arsenal.
Furthermore, they are also competing for a Champions League spot at the league table so both teams to score is my first choice pick which a good odd.
A double chance (win or draw) for Arsenal is my second choice pick which is less riskier though the dd is quite small.
