Football – England – Premier League Betting Tips
Onto the next local derby and it’s a short trip across London for the north of the capital clash between Arsenal and Tottenham at The Emirates Stadium with a vital three points and bragging rights at stake for both clubs here as the betting tips continue.
For the last few seasons, Arsenal have dropped a couple of places down the pecking order of the Big Six and to rub salt into the wound even more, they’ve slipped below their bitter rivals, Tottenham.
The appointment of Unai Emery though has seemed to breathe a new lease of life into Arsenal and a win today would see them move level on points with Spurs and maintain their challenge for a return to Champions League football next season.
Arsenal scored a convincing 3-0 win away at Vorskla in the Europa League during the week but today’s clash is the one that really matters as Arsenal look to extend their unbeaten run in the Premier League to 12 matches.
This impressive sequence has helped the hosts to a pretty good home record of 4-2-1 12/6 which includes wins over West Ham, Everton, Watford and Leicester City as well as grabbing a point against Liverpool in a 1-1 draw.
Tottenham laid down a marker in last weekend’s convincing 3-1 win over London rivals Chelsea which was promptly followed up with a solid 1-0 home win over Inter Milan in the Champions League which extended Spurs’ winning streak to six matches in all competitions.
The visitors return to Premier League action this Sunday also looking for a fourth win on the trot in the domestic top flight following wins over Wolves, Crystal Palace and the aforementioned Chelsea, while they possess a decent away record of 7-0-1 15/6.
Tottenham’s one defeat on their travels so far was at Watford in a 2-1 defeat but since then, Pochettino’s men haven’t looked back as they’ve won their last five on the road on the trot.
Arsenal’s home advantage levels the sides a little more for this clash and the betting tips suggest backing the draw which is good value.
