Arsenal vs Spurs: 5 Predictions for the North London Derby

Gareth Bale Will Open the Scoring

Hi-res-162663853_display_image

You'd be hard pressed to find a footballer currently in better form than Tottenham Hotspur's Gareth Bale.
In his last six matches in all competitions, the Welshman has scored eight goals, most of which have been spectacular. In Spurs' Europa League win over Olympique Lyon, Bale scored two stunning free kicks to carry his team to a 2-1 victory.
Just recently, his brace against West Ham in a 3-2 Premier League win saw him score a 30-yard screamer in the 90th minute to seal all three points.
For Arsenal supporters, the prospect of Bale coming up against a shaky Arsenal defense is truly terrifying. With Carl Jenkinson likely to play at right back in the absence of Bacary Sagna, it could be a long 90 minutes for the 21-year-old.
With the type of form Bale has been in, it's hard to see him not scoring.
