Team News and Playing XI
Surely both teams have a lot of key players missing for them coming into the North London Derby. Gabriel will be one of the biggest misses for the Arsenal team. Viktor Gyokeres and Riccardo Calafiori’s fitness is a big question mark for Arsenal. A decision for Gabriel Martinelli and Noni Madueke will be taken just before the match. Spurs will hope Kudus is fit to start the match. Maddison and Dragusin are long-time misses. Solanke, Kulusevski, and Kolo Muani are doubtful.
Arsenal XI:
- Goalkeeper: Raya
- Defenders: Timber, Saliba, Mosquera, and Calafiori
- Midfielders: Zubimendi, Rice, and Merino
- Forward: MerinoSaka, Eze, and Trossard
Spurs XI:
- Goalkeeper: Vicario
- Defenders: Porro, Romero, Van de Ven, and Spence
- Midfielders: Palhinha, Bentancur, Sarr, and Odobert
- Forward: Richarlison and Kudus
Arsenal vs Spurs: Winner Prediction
The kind of form Arsenal are in currently will surely take a lot to defeat, but the good thing for Spurs is that Gabriel is not playing. They need to take full advantage of it. Arsenal are surely covered, and they have other players to give them the depth. With the past results, Arsenal are surely the favourites going into the game.
Scorline Prediction: Arsenal 4-1 Spurs
