Struggling to decide on this one for Super 6.
My gut is saying 1-1.
My desire to back my team is saying 1-2 but it feels rather hopeful given our injuries / suspensions and that we are away.
Looking for some honest opinions with legitimate reasons as to why you've landed on your result/score.
Thanks in advance!
Your honest predicted result for Sunday?

17-9 Spurs
----------------------------------------------------------------------Worst odds for Spurs to bet on, you should get at least 20/9

Yeh Woolwich used to have a vice chairman and co owner on the board of the FA, no wonder they have had so much joy with refs

If we win it will be 2-1
If its a draw 1-1
If Spurs win it could be quite a heavy defeat for Arsenal
Players missing, biased refs, etc, poor transfer window,

This is probably the worst take I have ever seen.
We have had numerous PGMOL apologies for match changing errors.
Historically we are one of just 2 teams to receive point deductions for on field handbags. Yet at the "Battle of the Bridge" the ref openly admitted he went into the game with a pre-conceived plan not to send a Spurs player off no matter what they did. And he wasn't the only ref to admit cheating to favour Spurs, Mike Dean also did.
Even in NLD the bias towards Spurs is clear. No more so than a recent 2-2 where Coquelin was sent off for 2 yellows then Dier, on a booking, made the most stonewall yellow foul you will see only for the ref to let him off.
Arsenal lucky? As a great song sort of goes, if we didn't have bad luck we wouldn't have any luck at all.

How did you see it today DJ?
I thought Gillet started by favouring Spurs in the first 10 minutes giving them some soft fouls like that freekick near the sideline for Maddison.
After that I thought he was pretty fair for the most part until we scored, at which point I immediately said: "he'll start to favour Spurs now because as a Liverpool fan who just dropped 3 points, a 1-1 would be ideal".
It seemed to me that pretty much came true with some strange decisions at the end, not calling for fouls on us and playing an additional 45 seconds of stoppage time for them to find a goal when 5 minutes already seemed too much, I think 4 would have been plenty.
The crazy thing is, Gillet's performance today is about as good as it gets for us, we usually get far worse seemingly anti-Arsenal performances.

Think Gillett was a bit over-officious in the first half, too many soft yellows for a NLD. The Timber call he got wrong, but luckily not wrong enough to give the red the pundits were baying for. Timber controlled the ball and Porro kicked through, not a foul never mind a red.
Think the injury time was okay, lots of subs, a goal, Saka injury, a couple of others staying down. Then Havertz went down in injury time a couple of other small stoppages.
Seen this weekend a lot of very soft yellows and refs bringing out the card way too easily for my liking. They are trying to cover the Rice red and the lack of consistency before that.

Agree about Gillett.
But Spurs didn't take their chances...
and Solenke is no substitute for Harry Kane.
And if only Kulushevski and Johnson could shoot worth a damn....we'd have won..
