It’s Tottenham versus Arsenal at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday, with the home side looking to claim a victory in this North London derby and delight their success-starved fans. They’ll feel confident considering that there are a couple of notable absentees for the visitors, with Declan Rice and Martin Odegaard both missing for the visitors.
Perhaps the Gunners will be able to cope without two of their star players, with Bukayo Saka having enjoyed a flying start to the season and his link-up play with Kai Havertz will provide hope that they can land all three points. They did win their first game of the season on the road when triumphing at Villa Park although it wasn’t an easy ride.
At least we know Arsenal have a rock solid defence, with Gabriel and William Saliba operating in front of David Raya, although the latest Premier League odds suggest that both teams could end up finding the net here. We know that Tottenham like to play on the front foot and there has been BTTS Yes in two of their first three matches.
Son Heung-Min could be the danger man for the home side, although perhaps we’ll see Dominic Solanke leading the line and there could be a star performance from midfielder James Maddison. We’re expecting entertainment and perhaps a 2-2 scoreline could be about right, with both teams likely to go in search of the victory.
