TOT Vs ARS Dream 11 Prediction: Tottenham Vs Arsenal. For two sides in a rut, today’s derby win could well end up being the biggest point of their season.
For both Tottenham and Arsenal, the 2019-29 edition of the Premier League has been a despondent and dreary one. Both these London clubs have cut forlorn figures, sides who have found themselves shrouded in dreary and languid displays all across the course of the season.
With just the one point separating these two, today’s encounter is one which takes precedence for these two teams owing to a slew of reasons. While its nature of the London derby was more than enough to see us be immersed in a competitive and feisty edge of the seat thriller, the fact that the winner takes one massive stride towards the Europa League increases the stakes placed on the encounter.
And Arsenal carry an edge when making an advent into the imminent encounter with the club currently on a four match unbeaten spree in the league. The club has worked assiduously under the tutelage of Arteta to try and unlock its true potential, a side which has made for riveting viewing off late with their intricate dedication to squirming their way into the Europa League.
Probable Winner
Where Arsenal have been steadily showing that they are a side slowly working on bettering its results with each passing fixture, Tottenham on the other hand have offered no solace on that front. The side’s drab and laggard 0-0 draw against Bournemouth saw them attempt no shot on goal, a showing which emoted towards the massive downgrade they have gone for in the manager ambit.
With Tottenham offering little in the way of attack, they’ll thrust everything in defence, making today’s encounter a tentative affair. Arsenal should manage to scram their way in this tussle with the club showing its capable of stringing together attacking plays of meaning.

Goal-Keeper

The shot stopper has taken control of the club’s backline, a player who ahs been hailed for his performances given the gallantry and fight he’s put on show for the club.
Defenders
This is a Tottenham side which has deployed a simple gameplan when up against teams capable of pummelling them. The team is set to go the same way today as they take on Arsenal in this derby clash, a fixture where the home side will focus all its attention towards defending.
And they are a tough nut to crack when the team decides to sit inside its side of the park, a team which could come out speckle free on the day. It sees us opt for a partnership from the side, one comprising of five assist man Serge Aurier with the tenacious CB, Toby Alderweireld coming into partner him up.
Elsewhere, the one pick will make its way into our side from Arsenal as well with the team having let in just the one goal in the last three outings to see us opt for the services of David Luiz.
Midfielders
Ever since signing his new deal at Arsenal, the electric Bukayo Saka has shown why the club was so eager to stick him down to a long term stay. The player has pulled off assists in two encounters on the spin with the player thriving and flourishing in his preferred attacking role.
Another player who has been responsible for Arsenal’s resurgence after two defeats on the bounce is Dani Ceballos. From being slandered and berated by the club’s ardent supporters to now being considered for an extension, the midfielder has taken over charge of a midfield that was in dire need of control.
CDM Granit Xhaka joins him up to wrap up a trio from Arsenal that has taken over accountability of rekindling the side. Tottenham on the other hand see just the singular pick with us reposing faith in Giovani Lo Celso, a player who has managed to stand tall and make his presence felt in an agonising Tottenham attacking ambit.
Strikers
Arsenal’s top scorer and overall the second highest scorer in the league, Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang has now gone onto score in two matches on the spin for the club. Elsewhere, Tottenham will also see their leading scorer make a way into our Dream 11 side with Harry Kane loving a goal for himself in this encounter.
He’s joined up by Heung-Min Son who has piled on the 9 goals and 9 assists, two players who are capable of spinning this Arsenal side which has typically collapsed under the brunt of vicious attacking units.
