Tottenham - Arsenal 7/2/2015 12:45 GMT
This round of the Premier League will begin with a spectacular London derby between Tottenham and Arsenal. Both teams are in good form and are separated by just 2 points in the standings, which makes this clash even more intriguing.
Tottenham have not lost a home game in the league since early of November last year. The Spurs have not defeated their great rival already in 4 consecutive games and no doubt the players of Mauricio Pochettino will be quite motivated to take full advantage of facing Arsenal at home.
Arsenal are heading for the top 4 after winning 5 of their last 6 games. The last loss for the Gunners, however, was precisely by a direct contender for the top places in the standings - Southampton. Arsene Wenger`s team defeated the champions of Manchester City in their previous away game and so denied some allegations that they cannot win an important away match this season. Despite this victory, the overall away performance of Arsenal is not quite good, winning in less than half of their away matches so far.
Arsenal and Tottenham have both won 12 games each in the Premier League this season and we definitely can expect an exciting match, in which it is quite likely over 2.5 goals to be seen.
