Sunday evening sees Tottenham and Arsenal meet in what has the potential to be one of the funniest North London Derbies in English Premier League history.

Consecutive losses to Man United and Newcastle were enough for Thomas Frank to be relieved of his position as Spurs manager, with them now winless in eight league matches.

New manager Igor Tudor will oversee things until the end of the season, with his priority objective to keep Tottenham in the Premier League.

The hosts sit just five points above the relegation zone and have taken maximum points from just two of their last 17 Premier League games.

Supra are hopeless, but if the prospect of denying their rivals their first Premier League title in over 20 years doesn’t motivate them, then nothing will.

“Second again, ole, ole” rang around Molineux, as Arsenal forfeited a two-goal lead to draw with bottom-of-the-table Wolves during the week.

Though they remain at the top of the Premier League table, manager Mikel Arteta’s side could see their lead narrowed to just two points by the time this match kicks off.

It was the second of consecutive draws away from home for Arsenal. And with Manchester City lurking, the Gunners will be keen to ignore the sense of inevitability that dawns on the Emirates Stadium.

What are the best bets for Tottenham vs Arsenal?

Arsenal to win

Arsenal quite simply have to win this match, and that is what makes this tie even better than it already is.

In no realm of my imagination can I see Tottenham winning this match on quality alone. And so for that reason, I’ll back Arsenal.

It’s boring, I know, but the Gunners have lost just three Premier League matches all season, losing just one match across all competitions since mid-December.

Victor Gyokeres to score

Victor Gyokeres has scored eight Premier League goals this season, though Bukayo Saka played centrally and scored against Wolves.

I’d take the former to score in this game, and to add a bit more value, the cards market seems the way forward.

Over 4.5 cards

This is a massive game not only because it’s a derby, but also because of the wider implications on the Premier League.

There were four cards when the two sides met in the reverse fixture, but I can see this game spiralling out of control. Taking over 4.5 cards is my advice.
