Tottenham vs Arsenal Preview

Tottenham 

The Spurs play inconsistently, having only one win in the past four games, but snapping a point on the road at Anfield, where they pretty much buried Liverpool’s title dreams. A 1-1 draw allowed Man City to gain a three-point edge over the Reds.

As for Tottenham, as said, they are unpredictable. One week they beat Aston Villa on the road, and on the very next, lose to Brighton at home, 0-1. Three of their last four games were with under 2.5 goals.

Things are a bit better once analyzing only the home events, with the Spurs winning four out of the past five EPL contests. Antonio Conte’s unit scored at least three goals in all those triumphs, severely beating the rivals (Everton, West Ham, Newcastle, and Leicester).

Arsenal

The Gunners defeated Leeds this Sunday afternoon, but they were once again unconvincing. Arsenal was up 2-0 quickly enough, only to slow down afterward and allow the guests to score even though they had a player fewer on the pitch due to a red card.

Overall, the Gunners have played well in the recent few weeks, having four wins in a row, all of them with both conceding and scoring goals. Of course, those events were all with Over 2.5 scores, and during that stretch, they would beat Chelsea, Manchester United, West Ham, and the above-mentioned Leeds.

Arsenal became more aggressive up front, which brings goals, and even though they allow a hit or two in their net, the attack covers up all that and has no problems delivering more than the defense concedes.
