The 'North London Clash' at the most intense time of the season is sure to be a thriller, but the implications of winning or losing this match are unprecedented.
Pusztigorlu and his Tottenham coached side were absolutely willing to stop Arsenal from getting 3 points and leaving a huge spoiler in their Premier League title run. There is a lot of hatred between these two teams and their fans, and it is expected that all of their fans will be talking about this game for the next few days.
Tottenham haven't played since their crushing defeat to Newcastle on April 13th, which gave them a two-week break to regain their fitness and plan for the game. Arsenal have played four games in that time, so it's undeniable that Tottenham must be in better physical condition. However, match results can often work wonders. After winning their last two league games, Arsenal players may even continue to rely on adrenaline excitement going into the game rather than feeling fatigued.
In my opinion, the key factor in this game is Son Heung-min's position on the field. I watched the Arsenal v Chelsea game this week, and although Chelsea lost, they did cause Arsenal some problems defending in the left flank area. We know that Binwet likes to go forward and Nicolas Jackson has caused problems in this area many times with his speed. Son Heung-min who has the same speed and higher skills can do the same thing. He could even move further down the left flank to the middle of the road and press up and down both of Tottenham's gates, thus creating an advantage in terms of numbers in the area.
Arsenal were excellent against Chelsea in midweek, and the key player on the night was Xaviers, who I hope will continue to play a similar role against Tottenham in their high defense. This means that he can avoid the two central defenders withdrawing into midfield, pass the ball to a player like Odigat, and then turn around and attack with the other 3 or 4 Arsenal players who are moving up without the ball. If Spurs defend high up the pitch, I can see Arsenal taking advantage of their speed on the wings to break through the Spurs defense and find a lot of openings to attack.
For Arsenal, this is the most important game in the last straight, if they lose, Man City will have a great chance to win the EPL title. Although I don't think Arsenal will lose this match, I think Arsenal will lose this match "North London Beatdown" Tension and high emotions will make the game extremely physical, affecting the direction of the game at any time, so I dare to estimate that this match will be over.
