Only Manchester City have netted more goals than Spurs and side from N17 have scored in each of their last 10 competitive meetings with Arsenal.

The Gunners for their part have scored in all eight of their competitive matches this term and backing goals at both ends on Sunday makes sense, especially given that Arteta's side have conceded in their three home games.
