In London’s derby, Arsenal will host Tottenham in the 3rd round of FA Cup.
Arsenal is playing amazing this season, they are standing at the top of the table and they hope this season could the best after few years.
On the other side, Tottenham have new coach. Tim Sherwood has replaced Andre Villas-Boas and brought attacking football, so Tottenham play much better so far.
Both teams have problems with injured players.
Arsenal misses out Nicklas Bendtner, Vassiriki Abou Diaby, Yaya Sanogo, Aaron Ramsey, Mesut Özil and Kieran Gibbs, while Olivier Giroud and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain are both doubtful.
On the other side, Tottenham will be without Jan Vertonghen, Sandro, Paulinho, Younes Kaboul, Erik Lamela, Gylfi Sigurdsson and Kyle Naughton, while Emmanuel Adebayor, Jermain Defoe, Andros Townsend and Lewis Holtby are all doubtful.
In my opinion, Arsenal is not strong on both sides in defence. Left defender Monreal and right defender Jenkinson didn’t play many matches this season, so Aaron Lennon and Christian Eriksen, including strikers could make them problems.
On the other side, Lukas Podolski is expected to be in attack along Wallcot.
On their previous matches we have seen many goals in both nets, so I believe this could be a match with at least three goals.
Both teams to score is also a good betting option.
