Tottenham stand at the second position with only three points less than leader Leicester City and only three points more than Arsenal. Spurs lost the last match in Premier League against city rivals West Ham 1-0 and now they want to make better result against one of the main candidates for the title, upfront their supporters. Tottenham play very good at home, they lost only two times this season at White Hart Lane (8-4-2) and without any doubt, they have an advantage of home field, but in the matches like these, it’s not very important. In the first half of the season match between Arsenal vs Tottenham was finished without winner 1-1, but this game is more important for both side because both of them are fighting for the title and could win it after many years.

Arsenal stand at the 3rd position with 6 points less than Leicester and three points less than Spurs, so in the case of win they can take the second position for the city rivals. Home side unexpectedly lost in the previous round against Swansea 1-2 and lost important points, so they have to go for a win in this game in order to stay in race for the title. It was their 3rd lost match in a row in all competitions and 4th match in which they failed to win. Maybe the match against Tottenham doesn’t come in the right moment for Arsenal, but they have to improve their performance if they want the title. This could be the last chance for visitors to stay in a race for the title. In the last four Premier League matches against Spurs at White Hart Lane, Arsenal lost three times and managed to win only once, but interesting fact is that they scored in all those matches.

Tottenham vs Arsenal injuries and suspensions

Home side have no problem with injured and suspended players. Good news for side is that Mousa Dembele and Dele Alli are both back in squad and will be fit for this game. Big blow for visitors is the absence of their first goalkeeper Petr Cech, who will be out up to four weeks due to injury. Another important player in defence, Laurent Koscielny, is also injured.

Tottenham vs Arsenal possible linueps

Tottenham: Lloris; Walker, Alderweireld, Wimmer, Rose; Dier, Dembele; Lamela, Alli, Eriksen; Kane.
Arsenal: Ospina; Bellerin, Mertesacker, Gabriel, Monreal; Coquelin, Ramsey; Campbell, Ozil, Sanchez; Welbeck.

Tottenham vs Arsenal Prediction

The match between Tottenham vs Arsenal is more than derby, especially in this moment when both sides have a chance to win the title. Arsenal desperately need points and they have to play open in this match which could be very dangerous for them. I expect an interesting game and both teams to score.
