They are fighting for the same place in the league this campaign and it would be a massive game if they weren’t already rivals, so the intensity and passion of a North London Derby makes this the pick of the weekend’s fixtures.
Tottenham are flying at the moment as they haven’t lost in the top flight this year and have made winning games a habit in recent weeks.
It seems as though Andre Villas-Boas has installed a mentality in this squad that they never give up and with Gareth Bale in the kind of form he is, they always have a chance of winning matches.
Bale cannot stop scoring goals at the moment and he netted another fantastic brace on Monday evening in the 3-2 win at West Ham United.
The Welshman is proving to be one of the best players in the Premier League this season and he is sure to be relishing the chance to put in a big performance against the Gunners on Sunday.
With players such as Bale in fine form and the White Hart Lane crowd behind them, you can see why Spurs are being tipped as the slight favourites to win this one at 11/8.
As for Arsenal, despite many believing they have had a shocking season so far, a win here moves them to within just a point of their North London rivals and blows the race for Champions League football wide open.
The Gunners have been in this position before and seem to have a knack of winning matches when they need to. It might have been a shocking week in the cup for Arsene Wenger, but in the league, his men have won their last three and look in good form.
They also managed to win this fixture 5-2 earlier in the campaign, so certainly know what it takes to beat Tottenham. Arsenal are available at 47/18 to win here.
Theo Walcott has a decent record in this fixture and he might be the key man for the visiting team – just like Bale is for the hosts. Both of these players came though the Southampton youth academy of course and whoever puts in the best performance might be on the winning side. Bale is an 11/2 shot to score first, with Walcott at 8/1.
With the atmosphere sure to be electric and goals all but guaranteed when these two meet, it is tough to see anything other than a thrilling match between two attacking sides.
It has the potential to be one of the games of the season and the action all gets underway from 4PM on Sunday afternoon.
