Arsenal the bet at 13/10 in North London derby

Spurs play host to arch rivals Arsenal in the North London derby at White Hart Lane today (12.45pm KO, Live on BT Sport 1) and the visitors look worth a punt at the general 13/10 on offer to come out on top.

The home side have a good record in the fixture having lost just one of their last six Premier League home games against the Gunners (W3, D2).

However, they are still a work in progress under Mauricio Pochettino and face an Arsenal side who are in flying form at present have won their last five games in all competitions.

Arsene Wenger’s men were particularly impressive last weekend when destroying Aston Villa 5-0 and have a midfield packed full of talent which is stronger than Spurs and liekly to prove the deciding factor in this fixture.

Arsenal have also been boosted by the rtuirn to action of Theo Walcott and have an in-form strike in Olivier Grioud who has scored five goals in his last six league appearances.

The Frenchman is likely to cause the Spurs defence all sorts of problems with his aerial presence in thebox and makes plenty of appeal at a standout 7/1 with Ladbrokes to net the opener.

He can also be backed at 19/10 with BetVictor to net anytime, and that also looks a tasty wager given his current form.

To me this game also has goals written all ovcer it given the attacking nature of both sides, and over 2.5 goals at 5/6 with Boylesports is also worth a bet.
