English Premier League leaders Arsenal are aiming to recover from a recent disappointing draw as they head to Tottenham for a key North London derby on Saturday. Despite being at the top of the table (17 wins, 7 draws, and 3 losses), the Gunners have only secured two wins in their last seven matches (2-4-1). Their latest fixture ended in a frustrating 2-2 draw against Wolverhampton where they squandered a two-goal advantage.
Kickoff from the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium is scheduled for 11:30 AM ET. In the latest betting odds, Arsenal are favored at -180 for the win, with Tottenham listed at +500 as the underdogs, and a draw set at +330. The total goals for the match is pegged at 2.5 (Over -125, Under +100).
Expert Analysis & Bets
- Arsenal -1 Asian Handicap (-105, 1 unit)
- Both Teams to Score (-110, 0.5 units)
Arsenal seeks to rejuvenate their Premier League title hopes while facing a struggling Tottenham side. Historically, Spurs are known for helping teams regain confidence during tough patches.
Since the appointment of new manager Igor Tudor, whose system may present challenges for players unfamiliar with his tactics, Tottenham’s position remains precarious, sitting just above the relegation zone.
On a brighter note for Arsenal, they typically perform well against teams using a back three formation, having not lost any of their matches against such setups this season.
Note: The match could set the tone for the rest of the Premier League season as both teams prepare to capitalize on each other’s weaknesses.
