Arsenal – Tottenham Hotspur, Prediction Premier League

Arsenal manages to stay top level this season

Arsenal defeated PSV in the Champions League during the week, and are without a loss in the league, with only 2 points lost so far in the draw with Fulham. The Gunners have changed their style of play a bit, which was planned by Arteta, but they are still getting the results they need, which is perfect news for the fans. There are no important absentees in the team at the moment, apart from Martinelli, but in his absence Trossard scored 2 goals in 2 games.

Tottenham look pretty confident they can take even more than a point at the Emirates

Tottenham have the advantage of not playing in Europe this season, which could be of great benefit to them for home tournaments and the Championship, as they will have more time to prepare, and will be much fresher. Spurs’ style is nothing like the one of the past seasons, because their new coach, Postecoglou, imposes quite aggressive football. Tottenham were on the verge of losing to Sheffield United in the last round, but eventually made a comeback 2 minutes into added time at the end of the game to get to 2-1 and stay at the top of the standings.

It has been a long time since both teams have been in such good form at the same time

Both 2 teams like to finish their attacks with shots, and they also play quite out-muscled up front, so we can expect dynamism and counter attacks. Compared to Tottenham’s games, we can see one of the biggest numbers in terms of average number of shots per game. They themselves take over 17 shots per game usually. At Arsenal the number is lower, that’s why the line is 26.5, so I expect it to be crossed more easily. I think the correct line for odds of 1.83 is 28.5. Prediction – Over 26.5 shots in the game at 1.83.
