Coach Mikel Arteta’s team has reasons to believe in a good result in the London derby against Tottenham in round 35 of the 2023/2024 Premier League season.

At 20:00 today, April 28, Vietnam time, Arsenal Club will have a trip to Tottenham’s field in the London derby in round 35 of the Premier League. For coach Mikel Arteta’s team, each match at the present time is like a final, where The Gunners are not allowed to slip if they do not want to ruin their championship dream. Below are 3 reasons to believe that the Gunners will triumph in the upcoming match.

1. Extremely good form

It was thought that the loss to Bayern Munich in the Champions League or the loss to Aston Villa in round 33 signaled Arsenal’s ‘letting go cycle’, but no, they came back strongly with 2 consecutive victories. Being a ‘lamb’ in the European Cup but returning to the domestic arena, coach Mikel Arteta’s team is a real ‘tiger’. The London Gunners comfortably overcame Wolverhampton 2-0 in round 34 before crushing Chelsea by 5 unanswered goals in the middle of last week.

Even scarier, Arsenal have kept clean sheets in their last 6 away matches in the Premier League, only 2 teams have done this in 7 matches (Chelsea from September to December 2008 and Manchester United from November to February season 2008/09). In the hands of the Spanish strategist, he has a team full of aspirations, including the extremely high performance of Kai Havertz. They also did not suffer any losses before the match with Tottenham except in the case of Jurrien Timber. It can be said that The Gunners are ready to shoot down the Rooster.

2. Tottenham lacks stability

In contrast to Tottenham’s good form, coach Ange Postecoglou’s team has been playing unstable recently. Most recently, they lost their shirt 0-4 in their away trip to Newcastle – a weak defeat for the Roosters. In the last 5 matches, Son Heung-min only had 2 wins, 2 losses and 1 draw.

Obviously, the lack of stability makes Tottenham’s ambition to reach the top 4 become distant when they have left Aston Villa 7 points behind even though there are 2 matches left. Therefore, facing an Arsenal team in high form, the challenge for coach Ange Postecoglou’s team will be huge. However, the Rooster will fight hard because the hope of participating in the Champions League is still there.

3. Lessons from Liverpool

Just a few rounds ago, the Premier League championship was still a three-horse race between Arsenal, Liverpool and Man City. However, up to now, the Red Brigade seems to have given up with consecutive disastrous results. At the decisive moment, The Kop lacked courage, could not maintain the necessary concentration and had to pay the price.

Liverpool’s decline is seen as a lesson for Arsenal to avoid falling into their opponents’ footsteps. Looking at Man City’s extremely high form, The Gunners understand that, with just one more slip, they will say goodbye to their championship dream after many years of waiting (currently the Gunners also lose the right to self-determination). Therefore, every match from now until the end of the season will be finals with the home team at Emirates Stadium.
