The North London Derby is the live match offering tonight and with the recent goings on at White Hart lane there’s added an extra edge to this game.

Now it’s probably worth pointing out that as a Spurs fan it’s very difficult to remain impartial when discussing such a fixture. However, only a fool would back Spurs at the Emirates tonight.

That saying, totesport are happy to go best price Arsenal at 4/9 and it could be one to add toyour Premiership enhanced odds coupon.

Spurs do have the new manager syndrome and the Harry Redknapp factor but Harry would be the first to tell you that his record against Arsene Wenger is not the best.

Arsenal won this fixture rather fortuitously last season after a spirited Spurs team went down 2-1 after missing a penalty and conceding a late winner. Spurs did have Dimitar Berbatov and Robbie Keane leading the line that day however and scoring goals has been the main problem this season.

Redknapp played Luka Modric in behind Roman Pavlyuchenko and that seemed to pay dividends with the Croatian pulling the strings in the 2-0 win over Bolton. Modric is a 9/2 shot to score anytime with totesport.

From an Arsenal perspective, a win here is imperative. With defeat to Chelsea and dropped points from Manchester United at the weekend there 2-0 away win at West Ham pushed them right back in to contention.

They’ll be certainly pumped up for this one and if Cesc Fabregas’s claims that Spurs wouldn’t beat Arsenal ladies team is correct then this should be a cake walk. Truth is, they should win this one, but they should have beaten Fulham and Hull and we all know what happened there. Fabregas’s own personal humiliation at the Lane last January obviously still cuts deep and Arsene Wenger will be hoping these comments don’t come back to haunt him.
