Arsenal are aiming to strengthen their lead at the top of the table when they host Tottenham Hotspur in an English Premier League fixture.

The visitors have done some good work on their recent travels, but the Gunners look to be at a different level at the moment. The hosts have the upper hand in recent North London derbies and driven by a solid defence, should claim the upper hand here.

Arsenal News

Arsenal were held to a 2-2 draw at Sunderland prior to the international break. They led heading into Injury time through Bukayo Saka and Leandro Trossard, but went on to concede a late equaliser.

While manager Mikel Arteta will be disappointed not to have held on for the win, the result still maintains Arsenal's fine form as they have lost just once in the league this season. The Emirates has been a fortress this season, having won seven of their last eight home matches across all competitions.

Arsenal are without defender Gabriel Magalhaes but boast enough defensive cover and have kept clean sheets in seven of their last eight home matches across all competitions. They also have quality going forward, which has seen them score the first half’s opening goal while also holding a halftime lead in two of their last three Premier League home matches.

Tottenham Hotspur News

Tottenham Hotspur are also coming off a draw, having been held 2-2 at home by Manchester United last time out in the Premier League. They came from behind to lead thanks to Mathys Tel and Richarlison, but could not hold on for the win.

Things have been a bit erratic for Tottenham lately, having picked up just two wins in their last six Premier League matches. However, they have done some good work on their travels and are unbeaten in their five away matches in the league so far.

While Tottenham have done well on their travels in the league, their last away fixture was a 2-0 EFL Cup defeat at Newcastle United. Thomas Frank’s team have also failed to score in two of their last three away matches across all competitions.

Head to Head

Arsenal have seven wins while Tottenham Hotspur have picked up four victories, with one draw in the last 12 matches. The Gunners did the double last season, earning a 1-0 away win in the first meeting before claiming a 2-1 home victory in the reverse fixture.

Verdict

Arsenal v Tottenham

Tottenham have done some good work on their recent travels but often find things difficult against Arsenal. Having scored the opening first-half goal and led at the break in two of their last three matches, a similar pattern could be on the cards here.

Arsenal are driven by a solid defence and have earned a win to nil in seven of their last eight matches across all competitions. They could be set for a repeat against Tottenham, who have failed to score in two of their last three away matches.
