Tottenham v Arsenal betting will be the next headline grabber for the Premier League. The next North London derby kicks off at 12:45pm on Saturday, February 7th. It is going to be a big deal for both of them as well, because the race for a top four spot is still firmly within the grasp of both of them. Both of the rivals have a chance to end up inside the top four after the weekend with a win, Spurs having to win to move up, while a draw may be good enough to get Arsenal up into there.
Huge three points on offer at White Hart Lane on the weekend to kick off Premier League betting. The two picked up a 1-1 tie when they met back at the end of September, an Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain equalizer rescuing a point for the Gunners after Nacer Chadli had put the visitors ahead.
As there was nothing to chose between them at the Emirates earlier in the season and there is always 0-0 bore draw insurance you can take at online betting site Bet365, where the bookmaker will refund lost stakes as free bets on the Correct Score, Scorecast and half time markets. Another 1-1 draw in the Correct Score market is trading at a price of 13/2 with online bookmaker Bet365 for this one.
Tottenham have lost just one of their last six home matches in the English top flight against the Gunners, which may represent some value to punters in them avoiding defeat when the host the Gunners on the weekend. Spurs have also put up decent home figures lately, going unbeaten in six in the Premier League at White Hart Lane (W4 D2) which included that New Year’s Day hammering of other London rivals Chelsea.
Mauricio Pochettino’s men have lost just one of their last nine in the top flight now and have looked more and more a consistent side as the season has worn on. Taking three points off the Gunners on Saturday (Tottenham are 5/2 for the win at Bet365) would see them leapfrog Arsene Wenger’s men by one point as both are still looking to close the gap on Southampton and Manchester United for a place in the top four at the end of the season and an all important Champions League spot.
But Arsenal are a team in form. In very good form. They have won their last five games in a row in all competitions have kept clean sheets in four of them. They rattled off a massive 5-0 win over Aston Villa on the weekend to back up what was a brilliant performance in winning 2-0 at the Etihad against Manchester City in their previous Premier League outing. So that is the state of Arsenal’s standing and the moment, but their away form has yet to really stand up.
Arsenal 11/10 favourites at Bet365 to take 3 points
The Gunners have won just two of their last five away games in the English top flight, having suffered losses at Stoke and Southampton in that sequence. So while they have been tanking along on home soil, with five league wins on the bounce at the Emirates, they have yet to back that up on the road. Still, online betting site Bet365 have the Gunners are 11/10 favourites to take all three points in the match.
