The stakes are high as Arsenal host Tottenham Hotspur at the Emirates in a Wednesday night North London Derby. Arsenal aim to keep their Premier League title hopes alive, while Spurs look to end a poor league run by getting back at Arsenal for the 1-0 defeat in September.
🔴Arsenal Look to Avoid Dropping Anymore Points| Home Win = 1.49💵
Despite recent struggles—losing to Newcastle and Manchester United in cup competitions—the Gunners remain just 6 points behind league leaders, Liverpool, who have a game in hand, and if the Gunners hope to challenge for the title, they would want to avoid dropping any more points and that means doing the business against Spurs.
Arsenal are unbeaten in their last five derby clashes with Spurs, winning four and drawing the other. In addition, Mikel Arteta’s side boasts an impressive average of over 2 goals per game against Spurs in their last 5 home derbies, something they would take a lot of inspiration from going into this one.
🤍Tottenham Seek to Break Poor Form with Revenge | Away Win = 6.50💵
Tottenham have struggled in the Premier League, failing to win their last four games (3L 1D). However, Ange Postecoglou’s side have shown resilience in recent cup matches, including a hard-fought 1-0 win over Liverpool in the EFL Cup and a rather disappointing 3-0 extra-time win over Tamworth in the FA Cup.
Spurs have conceded in 25 consecutive league games at the Emirates, an alarming statistic for a team aiming to keep Arsenal at bay. That said, they will still have to go ahead and try because the 8 points currently between them and the relegation spots, is not that huge.
🗝️Key Players & Team News📰:
Arsenal will miss Gabriel Jesus, Saka, White, and Takehiro Tomiyasu due to injuries, while Arteta is expected to persist with Kai Havertz despite his recent poor form. Martin Ødegaard’s creativity and the defensive stability of Declan Rice will be crucial.
Archie Gray and Radu Dragusin will continue as Tottenham’s makeshift defence with Christian Romero, Van de Ven and Udogie still out. With Son Heung-min and Dejan Kulusevski in form, Spurs’ attack will rely on quick transitions to exploit Arsenal’s weakened backline.
