Arsenal have been in excellent form since their August defeat to Liverpool, winning twelve games and drawing two in all competitions.
Their home form is impressive, keeping four clean sheets in five league matches, with only Erling Haaland managing to score against them.
A recent 2-2 draw at Sunderland was a rare stumble, but Arsenal’s perfect record when scoring first, winning all 13 such games, shows they remain in strong shape.
Tottenham have struggled recently, winning just one of their last four league games, but remain unbeaten away this season (W4, D1).
Their recent record against Arsenal isn’t great; they’ve only won one of the last six meetings, but a tricky away trip could still spring a surprise.
Head-to-head stats
Arsenal are unbeaten in six straight clashes with Spurs (W5, D1) and have scored two or more goals in each of the last eight meetings.
They’ve also scored five unanswered goals between halftime and the 60th minute this season. Spurs, however, have led at halftime in only three of 11 league games, highlighting their slow starts.
Key players and injuries
Arsenal will rely on Bukayo Saka, who has scored in each of his last three starts and been involved in six goals across recent H2Hs.
Injuries remain a concern, with Gabriel Magalhaes, Viktor Gyökeres, Martinelli, and Kai Havertz sidelined, while Odegaard is still out.
Tottenham have fewer absentees, with Solanke, Bissouma, Kulusevski, and Maddison ruled out. Positive news includes Mohammed Kudus returning to full fitness and Radu Dragusin nearing a comeback after ACL recovery.
Predicted line-ups
Arsenal: Raya; Timber, Saliba, Mosquera, Hincapie; Eze, Zubimendi, Rice; Saka, Merino, Trossard
Tottenham: Vicario; Porro, Romero, Van de Ven, Spence; Palhinha, Sarr; Kudus, Simons, Odobert; Richarlison
Both sides will test each other on set pieces, but Arsenal’s depth and attacking power give them the edge. Expect a tight game decided by a single moment.
Score Prediction: Arsenal 1-0 Tottenham Hotspur
