Arsenal are ahead in several areas when compared to Tottenham Hotspur.
Tottenham Hotspur against Arsenal this weekend is one of the most difficult games to call on the fixture schedule.
Both sides go into the match off the back of big wins and it will be interesting to see the approach they each take into the game.
Arsenal are ahead of Spurs in terms of goals scored and goals conceded so far this season.
It suggests the Gunners attack could give Tottenham a few headaches across their backline, showing the importance for Spurs in terms of defending properly.
Arsenal are also passing more accurately and are winning more aerial challenges.
That suggests Arsenal will be comfortable whether the game is played on the pitch and also in terms of dealing with Tottenham, if they try and hit the Gunners over the top.
Where the stats suggest Tottenham can have an impact on the game is in terms of their tackling.
They’ve put in more successful tackles than Arsenal this season and should be looking to get stuck in, break up the play and trying to generally disrupt the way Arsenal play.
In short, the best approach for Tottenham appears to be getting stuck in physically because Arsenal have the quality to wear Tottenham down over 90 minutes.
