Tottenham Hotspur vs Arsenal: Odegaard’s injury, Solanke’s home debut and… lots of goals?

The Premier League returns this weekend with a mouthwatering north London derby between Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal, live on Sky Sports - but will it be a goal-fest?

Both sides have attacking talent in abundance, with the likes of Harry Kane, Heung-min Son, Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli all capable of causing problems for the opposition defence.

However, there are also some injury concerns for both teams, with Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard a major doubt for the game after picking up a knock in training.

Solanke, meanwhile, is likely to make his home debut for Bournemouth after joining the club from Liverpool in the summer.

Plenty of firepower on display at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

With so much attacking talent on display, it would be no surprise to see plenty of goals in this game.

Tottenham have been in fine form in front of goal this season, scoring 12 goals in their opening four Premier League games.

Arsenal have also been scoring goals for fun, with 11 goals in their first four games.

So, if both teams can continue their goalscoring form, we could be in for a real treat on Sunday afternoon.

Injury concerns could play a factor

However, the injury concerns for both teams could have a say in the outcome of the game.

Odegaard is a key player for Arsenal, and his absence would be a big blow.

Solanke is also an important player for Bournemouth, and his lack of match fitness could make it difficult for him to make an impact.

A close game is in prospect

With so much at stake, it is likely to be a close game between two evenly matched teams.

Tottenham will be looking to continue their good start to the season, while Arsenal will be desperate to bounce back from their defeat to Manchester United last weekend.

Ultimately, the outcome of the game could depend on which team can take their chances.

If both teams are on form, then we could be in for a classic north London derby.
