For an Arsenal supporter, relying on Spurs is never a good thing.<\/p>\n
Firstly, I\u2019m expecting a strange atmosphere inside Tottenham Hotspur Stadium because while you can get sucked into wanting your own team to succeed, the knock-on effect of that result could hand Spurs\u2019 greatest rivals a first Premier League title in 20 years.<\/p>\n
Secondly, under Ange Postecoglou their defence has resembled a chocolate fireguard at times and so the chances of them limiting Manchester City enough so they can obtain a positive result feel very slim.<\/p>\n
Given what is at stake for Arsenal and the fact nobody seems to be giving West Ham any chance of causing an upset on Sunday – you can be forgiven for thinking Tuesday night\u2019s clash is absolutely the title decider. And you feel helpless, it\u2019s in their hands rather than our own!<\/p>\n
I guess the best way we can cope is to completely convince ourselves of Spurs\u2019 inability to get a result. Only then can we manage the disappointment that will inevitably grip us come 22:00 on Tuesday, turn our attentions to Sunday and head to Emirates Stadium with the hope of the day developing into something special.<\/p>\n

Tottenham Hotspur versus Manchester City is usually a pretty fun fixture for us as we have had some fantastic wins against them in the past.<\/p>\n
But are we hoping for the same this time around? It might be a slightly different atmosphere on Tuesday night. It will be unique. Should we score and go on to win then, of course, we will celebrate our team. However, if we concede a few and lose to City, it will not feel like too big of a loss to the potential champions.<\/p>\n
I have seen a lot of jokes on social media saying we will turn into City fans for the evening, just so Arsenal have less of a chance of winning the title. There are definitely a lot of supporters who in this instance care more about stopping our rivals than winning the game.<\/p>\n
For me, it\u2019s more of a light-hearted win-win situation. We want the three points for our own sake, but we can make peace with a loss if it hinders our rivals.<\/p>\n
At the end of the day, I support Spurs, so I will want what is best for the team. If we lose with style, that is always a lot easier to deal with than losing without performing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
