A high-profile matchup between two of the hottest teams in the 2015-2016 Premier League season, Tottenham Hotspur (5-1-5, 20 points) and Arsenal FC (8-2-1, 25 points), is set at the Emirates Stadium this Sunday, November 8th as week 12 of the English top flight competitions are concluded.
Arsenal is currently on a five-game winning run, thanks to the re-emergence of its talented Chilean winger Alexis Sánchez, who lately had been pouring out goals for Arsene Wenger both in domestic and continental matches.
Their last game was a 3-0 romp of Swansea City at the Liberty Stadium on October 31st as French striker Olivier Giroud, French defender Laurent Koscielny, and Costa Rican forward Joel Campbell contributed one goal apiece all in the second half of the dominating victory, as per Sports Mole.
Meanwhile, the Spurs are currently unbeaten in 10 straight games, with their only loss so far in the season was during opening week against Manchester United.
Tottenham clobbered Aston Villa, 3-1, at the White Hart Lane on Monday to pull off a second consecutive victory, via BBC Sport, and Mauricio Pochettino hopes to extend that streak against the Gunners this week.
Belgian winger Mousa Dembélé, English midfielder Dele Alli, and third captain Harry Kane scored a goal each at the 3rd, 45th +1, and 90th +3 minutes of the game to put away the challenge of the Villans. Villa's Ghanaian forward Jordan Ayew put his team on the board at the 79th.
The Gunners look invincible these days and while Tottenham will push them to the brink at the Emirates on Sunday, Wenger's boys will still prevail with a close decision.
The prediction is a 2-1 win for Arsenal.
Arsenal starting lineup (4-2-3-1 formation): Cech; Bellerín, Mertesacker, Monreal, Koscielny; Coquelin, Campbell; Cazorla, Sánchez, Özil, Giroud
Tottenham Hotspur starting lineup (4-2-3-1 formation): Lloris; Alderweireld, Walker, Rose, Vertonghen; Lamela, Eriksen; Dier, Alli, Dembélé; Kane
