Tottenham will host Arsenal at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

Tottenham will host Arsenal at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, England, on April 28 at 10 p.m. ET in the 35th round of the 2023-2024 English Premier League (EPL) season. Arsenal has a murderous schedule, but they’re on a roll. They defeated Wolverhampton 2-0 on Nov. 21 and followed that up with a 5-0 thrashing of Chelsea on Nov. 24.

Tottenham will take the stage in a whopping 15 days after their scheduled Round 34 matchup with Man City on Tuesday was postponed to the FA Cup quarterfinals. The end of the season is not far away. Both teams have a long way to go.

Tottenham are on the precipice of the ‘big four’ race. While they pause, fourth-place Aston Villa have pulled away. With two more games to play, Aston Villa have 66 points, while Spurs are on 60 points in fifth place.

A loss to Arsenal could widen the gap to nine points. The battle for fourth place could be effectively over.

Arsenal are slowly racking up points, 안전놀이터 but it’s still a slippery slope. The Gunners have 77 points, but there’s a difference in the number of games they’ve played. Second-place Liverpool, which has played one fewer game than Arsenal, has 74 points, while third-place Man City, which has played two fewer games, has 73 points. If City wins both games, the top spot will change hands again.

The Premier League office has announced the referees for Tottenham’s match against Arsenal on Thursday.

Referee Michael Oliver will take the whistle. Oliver has been assigned to four Arsenal games and three Tottenham games this season, according to Football London.

Tottenham have a nightmare. It was Oliver who refereed the 1-4 loss to Chelsea last November, a game that ended in a nine-man brawl that saw Cristian Romero and Destiny Udoh sent off.

That game was a turning point. Spurs were unbeaten in their opening 10 games in the EPL (W8 D2 L2) before the Chelsea game. It was their first defeat. In addition to two sending-offs, Micky van der Penn and James Maddison were injured. Son Heung-min also had a painful night, as he had a goal disallowed.

Arsenal also had some uncomfortable situations. Mateo Kovacic, who received a yellow card against Man City in October last year, 온라인카지노사이트 was not given a second booking for a rough tackle.

The EPL has been plagued by refereeing issues recently. “Three extremely poor decisions, no penalty given, is something we cannot accept,” Nottingham Forest said after their 0-2 loss to Everton on November 21, “We warned PGMOL (the EPL’s refereeing body) before the game that the VAR referee was a Luton Town fan, but they didn’t change him. Our patience has been tested many times. The club will now consider other options,” the statement continued.
