Analysis:
Spurs take on Arsenal in a possibly
season-defining North London rivalry on Thursday night at the Tottenham Hotspur
Stadium.
Tottenham Hotspur
While poor performances in April hurt their
chances of finishing in the top four, Tottenham bounced back by defeating
Leicester City and ending Liverpool's 12-game Premier League winning streak at
Anfield. They've only kept one clean sheet in their previous seven Premier
League home games, allowing one goal in each of the last four.
Arsenal
With four straight victories over Chelsea,
Manchester United, West Ham United, and Leeds United, the Gunners have control
of their top-four destiny coming into the closing stretch. They have also won
five of their previous seven road trips. The Gunners are now fourth in the
table - four-point lead over the Spurs in fifth position.
Prediction
The Gunners, along with Manchester City,
are the only team in the tournament to have won four consecutive games.
Meanwhile, the Spurs are one of just four clubs in the league to have won four
of their previous five home games. Considering these factors, either club
should be able to score on Thursday.
