Tip and bets
The two principled rivals are fighting for a top-4 finish and a ticket to the Champions League. Even though Arsenal are currently four points ahead of Tottenham, this will be a close race. In head-to-head matches, both sides usually give it their all, so goals are likely on both ends of the pitch.
Our prediction — both to score
Both sides have recorded few draws this season, but we think that a tie is a likely outcome in this fixture. The teams are on equal footing and emotionally charged, but in a way, a draw would satisfy both parties.
Second bet — draw
