  • Bukayo Saka – 1/4
  • James Maddison – 3/1

SportsLens Head of News Lee Astley commented on the odds, saying: “James Maddison and Bukayo Saka’s blossoming relationship on international duty for England has been well documented, but the feistiness of a North London derby is enough to break any bond.

“I’m sure the pair will not think much of it despite the media hysteria, and James Maddison’s light-hearted quip did well to suppress any suggestion that this runs deeper than Sunday’s game.

“The Tottenham midfielder has made a habit of throwing an invisible dart when celebrating, and it remains unclear what Saka’s intentions were when emulating it after opening the scoring.

“Maddison is a darts fanatic and was pictured in attendance at last year’s World Championships where he admitted to Sky Sports he has ‘thrown a few 180s’ in the past. Our exclusive odds hand him very short price to have the last laugh if a darts match was ever to materialise, with Maddison 1/10 to beat Saka.

“However the Arsenal livewire, who is deceptively strong when being hassled on the ball,  is backed to win in an exchange of fists at 1/4.”
