Swansea City held Tottenham Hotspur to a draw on their last visit to North London, and are hoping for another good result when they visit Arsenal.

Paul Merson believes their trip to the Gunners will not yield the same success as they enjoyed as they held Tottenham to a stalemate.

Paul Merson answers questions during Gillette Soccer Saturday Live with Jeff Stelling on March 19, 2012 at the Bournemouth International Centre in Bournemouth, England.

He told SkySports: “Swansea went to Tottenham at Wembley and sat 10 behind the ball but I think Arsenal will break them down more easily.”

Merson is predicting a 3-0 win for the Gunners for Saturday’s match.

Tottenham were incredibly unfortunate not to win the game against Swansea, dominating possession with 75 per cent and having 26 shots at goal.

Arsenal’s form has been mixed recently, losing against Watford before demolishing a sorry Everton side 5-2 away from home.

Swansea are in 15th place and have won just two of nine matches all season in the league, and a win at The Emirates for them would be a major upset.
