Pundit Gabby Agbonlahor has predicted Tottenham Hotspur vs. Arsenal to be an exciting game. The north London derby is set for Sunday, April 28 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the Premier League.

"Big big game. This is always the game everyone looks forward to. You always see goals, end-to-end, two teams that want to play attacking football. I think Spurs, two weeks without a game, that rest would help them."

"But Arsenal, they're fighting for the title. They need to win every game. I think they're gonna show that in this game. I'm gonna go for a high-scoring 3-2 win for Arsenal."

Spurs last played on April 13 and were hammered 4-0 at St. James' Park by Newcastle United. As for the Gunners, they demolished Chelsea 5-0 in their previous game at the Emirates on April 23. Mikel Arteta's team would look to put on yet another masterclass display against a London rival.
