Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur will face each other at the Emirates Stadium in the North London derby this weekend.

West Ham defender Tony Gale challenges Ian Wright of Arsenal during the FA Premiership match at Highbury on April 30, 1994 in London, England.

Ian Wright has predicted in The Sun that the North London derby between Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur this weekend will end in a draw.

The Gunners and Tottenham will face each other at the Emirates Stadium in North London in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon.

Arsenal legend Wright believes that the match will end in a 2-2 draw and has backed Harry Kane to score.

Kane is one of the best strikers in the Premier League and has scored eight goals in the league so far this season.

The England international striker should be fit enough to start for Spurs against Arsenal in the North London derby.

Ian Wright, former Arsenal player, watches a match with members of the Arsenal Fan Club team during the Barclays Asian Trophy 2015  mini tournament on May 12, 2015 in Singapore.

Wright wrote in The Sun: “I think it’ll be close and I wouldn’t be surprised to see another draw so the 9/1 on the game ending 2-2 is a tempting pick.

“However, I do think Spurs will take the lead in this one and if they are getting two goals you’d be a fool to overlook Kane, who has netted six in five in this fixture, to score first at 10/3.”

Tottenham will head into the match against Arsenal as favourites, and it is hard to see Mauricio Pochettino’s side drop all three points.

Arsenal will have home advantage, and the Gunners should be confident of picking up at least a point.

Saturday’s North London derby should be an exciting game of football.
