Tottenham needs also a win in this game as they want to play in Champions League next season and Manchester City has the first chance in this moment. As they were eliminated in the weekend in FA Cup by Portsmouth, they need to have a comeback and win this game. This will be a game where both teams will need the win if they want to achieve their targets.
Both teams will miss a lot of important players. Arsenal will play without Fabregas, Arshavin, Gallas, Djourou, Ramsey while Van Persie and Song are doubtful for this game. However we might have the surprise to see Van Persie to play again. Tottenham could miss also a lot of players today: Cudicini, Woodgate, Ledley King, Aaron Lennon, Jermaine Jenas while Vedran Corluka, Michael Dawson and Tom Huddlestone are doubtful.
This is a local derby and the stake is big for both teams. I hope to see an entertaining match, with many scoring chances. If one team will score soon in the game, pretty sure that we'll more goals and a spectacular game.
