Former Tottenham striker Peter Crouch has swung his predictions in the way of Spurs ahead of the north London Derby at the Emirates.
The North London Derby is usually the occasion for many top former stars from either club to come in with their predictions. While some of the verdicts may seem out of order, others try to make sense of their reasons, as Peter Crouch here gives his opinion.
The Former Tottenham striker has tipped the white side of north London to rise in jubilation after the latest North London Derby. His predictions appeared on TBR, where Crouch insists Spurs will go and get three points at the Emirates.
“I like a lot about Arsenal, and that pains me to say. But I think this is an opportunity for Spurs to go and get a result there. I’ve gone for 2-1. I think there’s a feel-good factor around Spurs at the moment. I’m probably getting carried away, but I genuinely think they could get a result there.”
Crouch may have reasons for his verdict, but the only possible reason here is Tottenham’s positive start to the season. Our preview of the north London Derby points towards a resounding Arsenal win, and there are plenty of reasons for the Gunners fan base to stay optimistic about it.
Former Gunners star Paul Merson recently predicted that Arsenal will crush Spurs at the Emirates, which may contradict how the two teams are playing their respective football. Tottenham, under Ange Postecoglou, does look like a different team with a new brand of football.
Alongside Arsenal, Manchester City and Liverpool, Spurs are the only other unbeaten side in the Premier League this season, and Postecoglou will hope that remains beyond Sunday. As for the Gunners, they have had a relatively slow start to the season by their standards but have picked up momentum right before the North London Derby.
Crouch’s predictions may have a hit of bias towards Tottenham, but the former striker, like any other Spours supporter, will feel optimistic about getting a result here. However, in truth, Arsenal have looked like a level above the rest, barring Man City this season, and their squad superiority will have a telling effect on the final result in the north London Derby.
Whether Crouch’s dream comes true will have to be found out on Sunday, but as far as predictions go, Tottenham will have to work extremely hard to find a win at the Emirates. Hence, as things stand, Arsenal are the favourites to take three points and go above their north London rivals.
