As a top-four hopeful, Spurs have been outscored in the first half of matches 13-10, and their 9.69 expected goals (xG) in the first half this season is good for just 12th in the Premier League. The two sides have combined for 51 second-half goals this season, which is nearly one-fifth of all second-half goals in the Premier League this season! Even without those outliers, second halves generally feature more goals in this sport as we saw on full display at the World Cup. Tottenham haven’t just been bad in the first half of Premier League matches this season, they’ve been downright awful. [](https://nnn.ng/#:~:text=real blogger outreach) Spurs, meanwhile, are fifth in the table, knowing points in this match would be exceptionally valuable in the race for a Champions League spot. Arsenal, meanwhile, have a boatload of players in excellent form that will carry them to victory here. However, with such rivalry matches being hotly contested despite table position and the recent swing towards the home club, Spurs are given a fighting chance in this match, with Arsenal into plus odds territory. Two important pieces in Richarlison and Rodrigo Bentancur are still struggling with injuries they picked up in World Cup duty. With City losing the Manchester derby on Saturday, this could be a key moment in the title race as Arsenal can jump out to an eight-point lead. A Gunners loss could see four clubs with a shot to win the title.

Yves Bissouma suffered an ankle issue in the Portsmouth game but should be part of the squad.
