Betting on Tottenham Hotspur F.C.
Totenham will be looking to avenge a heavy defeat by Arsenal that happened earlier this campaign, but will likely have to do so with important absentees such as Uruguayan Rodrigo Betancur and Brazilian Richarlison, who are both out with muscular injuries.
Moreover, the match is of great importance as Antonio Conte’s side are fifth in the league table with 33 points, two points behind Newcastle and Manchester United in the Champions League places, and only two points ahead of Fulham in sixth place.
Another interesting aspect is that Tottenham has struggled to play well at home, despite being untouchable at the start of the season. After opening the season with five straight victories in front of their supporters, the Spurs have dropped two of their past three games. This goes hand in hand with a pretty problematic period given that in their previous seven Premier League games, they had recorded three victories, one draw, and three losses.
Going back to their home performance, Tottenham is the fourth team with the most goals scored in this condition with 21, but is sixth in the league in goals conceded with 13. These are certainly worrying numbers before facing the second-highest scoring club in the championship.
Probable lineup (3-4-2-1): Hugo Lloris; Cristian Romero, Eric Dier, Clement Lenglet; Matt Doherty, Oliver Skipp, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, Ivan Perišić; Bryan Gil, Heung-min Son; Harry Kane.
Betting on Arsenal F.C.
Despite having failed to get the three against Newcastle at home, Arsenal remains at the top of the Premier League on 44 points, five ahead of nearest challengers Manchester City.
Throughout the season, Mikel Arteta’s team has played admirably; not only are they at the top of the Premier League, but they also lead their Europa League group with just one loss in six games.
The English championship’s hottest team is Arsenal, which hasn’t dropped a game in its previous 11 games and has only lost once in 17 games overall—and that loss came at the hands of Manchester United on the road.
In any case, the Gunners are the best team in English soccer playing away from home, recording 22 points from nine games played. They have conceded only six goals, the lowest number in this condition alongside Manchester City and Newcastle, as well as scoring the second-highest number of goals (18).
Probable lineup (4-3-3): Aaron Ramsdale; Ben White, William Saliba, Gabriel, Oleksandr Zinchenko; Martin Odegaard, Thomas Partey, Granit Xhaka; Bukayo Saka, Eddie Nketiah, Gabriel Martinelli.
JefeBet Prediction
Three of their past five matches have been won by Arsenal, although Tottenham has overcome its city rivals by not losing to them for eight games at home (6G-2E).
Of course, compared to previous seasons, Arsenal is a very different team this year, and Tottenham is currently struggling at home. Another interesting fact about these clubs is that they consistently provide us with a goal show; in seven of the last 11 games overall, there have been three or more goals on the scoreboard.
Prediction: Over (ARS 2 – TOT 1).
