“A High Noon kick off on Sunday at the Emirates for the North London derby and a game too close to call; the Gunners are without a win in their last four PL games against Spurs but, with home advantage, are worthy favourites,” the Englishman wrote on Betvictor.com.
“Spurs, however, have only conceded five goals in the PL so far this term and will want to put behind another bad night at the Champions League office at Wembley midweek.”
A footnote added: “Michael’s recommendation: Game to finish 1-1 at 13/2.”

Arsenal will head into the match against Tottenham on the back of a 3-2 victory over Ludogorets Razgrad away from home in the Champions League.

Arsene Wenger’s side are second in the Premier League table at the moment with 23 points from 10 matches, level on points with leaders Manchester City and third-placed Liverpool.
Meanwhile, Tottenham currently find themselves fifth in the standings with 20 points from 10 games.
