Summary:
Arsenal rates as the best attacking team in the Premier League but they will be up against a Tottenham team that has conceded the fewest goals thus far. Statistically Arsenal is favored in this match-up and the have the luxury of playing at home. Tottenham really misses their star striker Harry Kane who will again be out with injury. Kane led the Premier League in goals and his absence has caused quite the dip in goal scoring for Tottenham. There is certainly a lot of chatter about Tottenham’s slow start but they are the only team in the league without a loss. I think this will be a close game with Arsenal winning at the end on their home turf.
