Arsenal legend David Seaman is confident his old side will beat Tottenham in Thursday’s north London derby and also claimed they can overtake Chelsea and finish third. The Gunners are just a point behind Thomas Tuchel’s side after winning their last four games in a row amid a period of inconsistency for the Blues.
A victory for Arsenal at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium will seal a top four finish and secure Champions League qualification for the first time since the 2015/16 season. However, anything less than a win would leave the door open for Spurs to potentially overtake them with just two games remaining.
Mikel Arteta’s side were bottom of the Premier League after their opening three games and the turnaround in their fortunes shows how far they have come under the Spaniard’s management. Seaman is adamant that regardless of where they finish this season it’s been a campaign of immense improvement, and has also warned London rivals Chelsea that they could finish above them if they continue to drop points.
