Arsenal look like favorites! Tottenham vs Arsenal Prediction
The central match of the 4th round of the English Premier League will take place in London, where Tottenham Hotspur will host Arsenal at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Here is the prediction for this game from the Dailysports expert team.
Tottenham
The "Spurs" often make bold claims at the start of the season, signaling their readiness to compete for the highest spots. However, once the season begins, problems tend to arise quickly, and this campaign has been no different. In the opening round, Tottenham dropped points in an away draw against Leicester, newly promoted back to the Premier League.
Following that, they secured a resounding home victory over Everton, putting four unanswered goals past the "Toffees." Yet, considering Everton's inconsistent form in recent years, this result is not necessarily an indicator of Tottenham's readiness for a successful season. This was highlighted in the third round when Tottenham lost 1-2 away to Newcastle.
Arsenal
Last season, Arsenal fought Manchester City for the title until the very last round, but for the second consecutive year, they finished as runners-up. Understandably, the "Gunners" are determined to end City's hegemony in England, but to do so, they must consistently collect points, especially in matches against mid-tier teams.
One such match came before the international break, when Brighton visited the Emirates. Arsenal opened the scoring late in the first half, but after going down to 10 men early in the second, they allowed Brighton to equalize. Before that, Arsenal had secured back-to-back 2-0 victories over Wolverhampton and Aston Villa.
