Top 5 reasons why Spurs are the stronger team in North London

Better form

Tottenham have been grinding out results

While Tottenham have won both games thanks to solitary goals from Roberto Soldado, the fact of the matter is that they’re in better form than Arsenal, who seem to be fluctuating between a few extremes. A shock loss against Aston Villa was followed up by decent wins against Fenerbahce (Champions League qualification) and Fulham.

On the other hand, Tottenham have been winning matches domestically as well as in Europe, and given that they have signed quite a few new players already, that’s a good sign for them. With Arsenal, there’s always that slight feeling that something could go wrong at any minute.
