Paul Merson has given his prediction for the upcoming clash between Arsenal and Tottenham.
Both sides are enjoying the season, showing good results in their hopes of clinching the Premier League title this season.
The Gunners are currently sitting in 4th place in the league table following their four wins and one draw in the first five clashes of the campaign. The Spurs, meanwhile, are 2nd on the list, having the same result and taking a higher position due to their goal difference.
The two teams will be looking to have a successful clash when they face each other in the North London derby on Sunday, September 24, 2023. Ahead of the game, Meson has shared his thoughts, backing Mikel Arteta's team to be the winners in the showdown with a score of 4 - 1.
"I'm very bullish, but I think Arsenal will win this game easily. Tottenham have started the season well - there's no question about it. However, if they play gung-ho football and look to take the game to Arsenal, the Gunners will destroy them. If they stay quiet and look to nick a goal on the counter, they could be in with a chance, but I can't see that happening as that's not how they've played so far under Ange Postecoglou," the pundit said on Sportskeeda.
"Arsenal are coming on the back of a resounding win against PSV Eindhoven in the UEFA Champions League and should top that up with another impressive result at the Emirates Stadium," Merson added.
