Premier League Prediction: Tottenham – Arsenal (22-02-2026)

North London does not do quiet Sundays, and this one feels particularly volatile. Tottenham start life under Igor Tudor against an Arsenal side who have seen their cushion at the top trimmed and can no longer afford passive afternoons.

For derby goal markets where momentum can flip inside 15 minutes, Immerion is well suited. The totals and BTTS lines are easy to access, price changes are clear rather than erratic, and switching into live positions is straightforward if the match opens up early.

Tottenham’s league run has stalled badly – eight without a win (D4, L4) – and they remain the only side yet to record a Premier League victory in 2026.

The numbers underline how open their matches have become: seven of their last eight domestic games saw both teams score, and they have trailed at half-time in seven home league fixtures.

There is attacking intent, but defensive control has been inconsistent.

Premier League - Schedule

Arsenal are not arriving in perfect rhythm either.

Dropped points against Brentford and Wolves have tightened the title picture, yet their record in London derbies remains strong.

They have lost just once in their last 24 Premier League meetings with capital rivals, and recent games have rarely been cagey – seven of their last nine produced over 2.5 goals.

Premier League - Results

The reverse fixture ended 4-1 to Arsenal. Spurs’ injury list remains heavy, while Arsenal are managing fitness concerns of their own. Stability at the back is not guaranteed on either side.

Derbies between these two rarely drift.

With Spurs likely to play with urgency under a new coach and Arsenal needing a statement performance, the tempo should be high enough to clear 2.5 goals, with BTTS close behind as an alternative.
