Arsenal vs Tottenham Preview

After a difficult spell of back-to-back cup action, Arsenal will be relieved to be back in the Premier League where they can begin to chip away at their six-point deficit to leaders Liverpool. As far as the table is concerned, many would expect a routine win for the Gunners.

However, nothing is guaranteed in a derby and anything could happen. Manager Mikel Arteta will still be frustrated by the continued absence of important first-team players like Bukayo Saka, Ben White and the newly-injured Gabriel Jesus.

After a frustrating 1-1 draw with Brighton last time out in the league, Arsenal will be determined to bounce back and nothing would be sweeter than a victory over their arch nemesis.

This season, Tottenham have been impossible to pin down. You never know what you are going to get, which admittedly makes them tough to play against. But 12th in the Premier League, Spurs risk this season being viewed as an abject failure unless they can turn things around – and fast!

Alongside an active transfer window, Ange Postecoglou needs to address issues on the pitch that have led to losses in games they were seemingly in control of. Spurs have been praised for their aggressive playstyle and entertainment value, but this means nothing if progress is not made.

Spurs will no doubt be heartened by their 1-0 win over Liverpool in last week’s EFL Cup semi-final first leg – and a repeat performance is the minimum requirement for them at the Emirates.
