There were huge Ashley Cole vibes about Myles Lewis-Skelly against Tottenham - he knocked my socks off with his performance. He is a freak. At just 18-years-old he relished the north London derby occasion and played well above his years.
No player made more tackles for Arsenal (4), won possession more times (6) and had a higher passing accuracy (93.8 per cent) than Lewis-Skelly as the statistics backed up the visuals.

But a betting angle that continues to draw me in is his ability to draw fouls. He plays with a very streetwise nature and is happy to initiate contact and hit the deck to get himself out of a sticky situation.
In his eight starts he's drawn 18 fouls, putting him above the two fouls drawn per game average and the visual of his performances back up the data that he's going to be a great player to back in the to be fouled market. You can get 11/8 with Sky Bet on him drawing two or more fouls which looks a very interesting angle in what should be another gritty home win for the Gunners.
SCORE PREDICTION: 2-1
