For once, Arsenal fans will be fully behind Tottenham. The Gunners, who still dream of the Premier League title, will count on their sworn enemy from north London this Tuesday. Tottenham, 5th in the Premier League, hosts Manchester City, 2nd, in a late match of the 34th day.
Before the final multiplex this Sunday, the Sky Blues are only one small point behind Arsenal, leader of the Premier League. They could therefore regain control in the final moments of the season in the event of a victory at Spurs this Monday.
“I’m going to be the biggest Tottenham supporter of all time,” admitted Kai Havertz, who plays for rival Arsenal. The slightest misstep from the Citizens could allow the Gunners to win their first championship in 20 years, and the Invincibles of Thierry Henry. But Manchester City does not intend to give away any gifts, and will try to stock up on points against Tottenham, then against West Ham on Sunday, to offer themselves a fourth consecutive title. Since the creation of the Premier League in 1992, no team has managed to win the championship four times in a row.
The Spurs, for their part, are finally hoping to take points against a European team, since they remain on 4 defeats in the last 5 days, against Liverpool, Chelsea, Arsenal and Newcastle.
Kick-off for the late Premier League matchday 34 match between Tottenham and Manchester City is scheduled for 9 p.m. this Tuesday, May 14. The meeting will be broadcast live on Canal + Foot.
