Football predictions analysis indicate that Arsenal will adopt a mixed approach with a solid shape when out of possession and an expansive attacking shape when they are on the ball. They will press in specific areas of the pitch and look to leverage the Tottenham high defensive line.
Tottenham vs. Arsenal Expert Analysis
Tottenham’s season has been up and down with inconsistencies marring their fight for a top-four position under Ange Postecoglou. Their use of a high line has especially been the target of criticism from pundits and the cause of some of their surprise defeats.
