Tottenham vs Arsenal Match Preview

For the 20th matchday of the English Premier League, Tottenham welcomes Arsenal in this North London's derby at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Tottenham returned to winning ways after 2 matches, in their last match they beat 4-0 Crystal Palace away from home. After some time they made a convincing appearance and with an impressive efficiency in the second half they scored 4 times giving dimensions of triumph to their victory.

After this victory, Tottenham reached 33 points and are in 5th place in the Premier League, having 2 points less than the top(four.

In the middle of the week, Tottenham playing with a much rotated squad, beat Portsmouth 1-0 and qualified for the next stage of the English FA Cup.

Arsenal lost points after a while, in the last matchday they played a bore draw at home vs Newcastle. They dominated from the start and were the team that looked for the winner but they lacked efficiency and were fatally limited to a draw.

Even so, Arsenal extended their unbeaten streak in the Premier League to 11 games and continues to top the rankings with 44 points.

Last Monday, Arsenal won 3-0 over Oxford on the road for the FA Cup and easily got the ticket for the next round of the competition.

It's the big North London's derby, with both teams targeting a win for their own reasons. Tottenham to remain close to the top-four spots, while Arsenal, after City's defeat in the Manchester derby, to increase the margin from the other title contenders. Both sides have great quality and can offer us a an exciting match. My pick here is Over 2.5 goals at 1.74 odds.
