THE PREDICTION
As always, it promises to be a feisty affair as Arsenal and Tottenham lock horns at the Emirates Stadium in this North London derby. Whilst the Gunners currently languish in mid table, Spurs have come into some much-needed form as they look to try and make a late charge into the top four. Jose Mourinho’s men have won their last three Premier League games, scoring nine goals in the process. However, the visitors will have to be at their very best here to beat an Arsenal side highly motivated against their fierce rivals. As always in a local derby, a sense of nervousness is likely to show within both sides and neither are expected to come out of the traps all guns blazing, with priority instead given to ensuring a solid defence and no conceding of any early goals. With that in mind, under 2.5 goals scored over the 90 minutes should be seriously considered, as was the case in the reverse fixture last December.
