Another huge game for Arsenal when they welcome Tottenham to the Emirates on Sunday and the pundits have already given their predictions for the match.
Both teams are coming off losses, Arsenal beaten 3-1 at Liverpool and Tottenham surprisingly losing at home 1-0 to Newcastle United.
Starting off with two former Gunners in Paul Merson and Charlie Nicholas who both go for a home win, Merson reckons it will be 4-1 and Nicholas 4-2. Don’t suppose anyone is surprised by their predictions.
The BBC’s Mark Lawrenson takes an almost opposite view to the former Arsenal duo going with a 1-1 draw, he clearly does not feel that Aubameyang and co will be as prolific in front of the goal as what Merson and Nicholas do.
Former Liverpool hitman Michael Owen is in agreement with Lawrenson also predicting a draw between the North London rivals as does former Southampton star Matt Le Tissier, who goes for a 2-2 draw.
Le Tissier’s Sky Sports colleague Phil Thompson goes for an Arsenal win, predicting that Unai Emery’s men will emerge the winners 2-1.
Finally, BT’s so-called Supercomputer is going for a 2-2 draw.
So, we have three going for an Arsenal win and four going for a draw, in better words not one of them is predicting a Tottenham win.
Cannot say I disagree.
