English Premier League
Date: Sunday, 30th April 2017
Kick off at 16:30 UK/ 17:30 CET
Venue: White Hart Lane.

It’s all set for the North London derby between and the extension of one of the oldest rivalries in England.

Tottenham Hotspur will come in the game in a much better form and this is one of the rare derbies in which the Spurs are actually pretty clear favourites for grabbing the victory.

Tottenham Hotspur

Mauricio Pochettino and his men have been on a phenomenal run of eight consecutive wins in Premier League.

This puts the Spurs only four points away from Chelsea at the top of the standings and the victory over the arch-rivals would keep the pressure on the Blues.

Christian Eriksen was the one who notched the winner in mid-week’s visit to Selhurst Park.

Arsenal

Securing the Champions League spots will almost be a mission impossible for Arsene Wenger.

The Gunners are four points off Manchester City at the fourth position and beating the Citizens and the Red Devils will require a serious turnaround in form.

Arsenal managed to pick up the second straight league win on Wednesday evening when Laurent Koscielny came out with the match winner in the dying minutes of the game with Leicester City at The Emirates.

Tottenham vs Arsenal: Head to head

Arsenal lead the tie by 17 wins ahead of the 167th North London derby.

It is interesting to note that none of the previous three head to head meetings offered a winner, while each of the last six encounters saw the option of both teams netting.

Tottenham vs Arsenal: Prediction

The Spurs have been almost impeccable at White Hart Lane throughout the season.

They have been enjoying a much better shape, and there is just no better moment for them to claim the victory over the arch-rivals but this.
