Arsenal and Tottenham will both be aiming to bounce back from defeat when they meet at the Emirates Stadium in Sunday’s North London derby.
The Gunners saw their perfect start to the season ended with a 3-1 defeat at Liverpool last weekend, while their neighbours suffered a shock 1-0 loss at home to Newcastle.
Arsenal vs Tottenham latest odds
Having won their last two home league matches against the local rivals, the hosts are 11/8 (2.38) favourites with 888Sport to record a morale-boosting victory here.
However, Mauricio Pochettino’s men did come out on top in their last visit to this ground in the Carabao Cup, and are priced at 19/10 (2.90) to record back-to-back away wins over this opposition for the first time since 1926.
The last encounter between this pair resulted in a 1-1 draw at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium back in March, and there are odds of 13/5 (3.60) available on them cancelling each other out once again.
Arsenal vs Tottenham team news
Hector Bellerin, Konstantinos Mavropanos and Kieran Tierney are all ruled out, although Rob Holding and Mesut Ozil could be in contention after returning to training.
Juan Foyth, Kyle Walker-Peters, Ryan Sessegnon, Tanguy Ndombele and Eric Dier are all unavailable, whilst Dele Alli is a doubt.
Arsenal vs Tottenham preview
Although their record in recent derby matches is far from invincible, Unai Emery’s team has maintained the upper hand when it comes to home matches - losing just once in 26 games in their own back yard.
They will feel confident of extending this run considering only two of their last 25 home league matches have resulted in defeat, with 20 of those producing victories.
In contrast, Spurs have taken just one point from the last available 21 on the road, and have started this season in less than impressive fashion.
Arsenal vs Tottenham predictions
With this in mind, odds of 11/8 (2.38) are well worth backing on Arsenal claiming the early season bragging rights by coming out on top against Tottenham.
