Arsenal vs Tottenham preview

Arch-rivals Arsenal and Tottenham do battle in the 211th north London derby at the Emirates Stadium on Wednesday.

And it's actually Mikel Arteta's Arsenal who enter the encounter in desperate in need of a morale-boosting victory to get their season back on track.

The Gunners have endured a miserable run of three matches without a win.

Carded

It's still early days in his career but it's quite evident that Lucas Bergvall has the stomach for a fight and should relish this encounter. In addition to his technical qualities, Bergvall has physicality, tenacity and aggression in abundance.

First goalscorer and correct score predictions

Arsenal vs Tottenham

First goalscorer: Martin Odegaard at 17/2 with talkSPORT BET -

Correct score: 3-1 at 9/1 with Betfred -

Assist

Martin Odegaard is available at 7/2 with William Hill to provide an assist in this encounter. Odegaard, 26, has operated on the right side of Arsenal's midfield three in the absence of the injured Bukayo Saka and that's where the majority of their attacks still stem from.

He remains, as far as we know, the club's penalty taker and has taken on set-piece duty, which we know is a massive strength for the hosts. He's provided five assists in all competitions and has created five chances for his colleagues in the last four league outings with an xA of 0.54.
