Match Stats

Tottenham Hotspur:

Tottenham Hotspur enters this weekend's North London derby with a mixed set of results. After a disappointing 2-1 defeat to Newcastle United, where goals from Harvey Barnes and Alexander Isak overshadowed a Dan Burn own goal, Spurs are eager to bounce back. This loss extended their struggles at St James' Park, though they have shown some resilience by reducing their margin of defeat each season. Prior to the international break, Tottenham secured a commanding 4-0 victory over Everton, which had seemingly resolved some early-season issues. Currently 10th in the Premier League, Tottenham is looking to end their alternating win-loss pattern at home and build momentum against their local rivals. They are keen to capitalize on the opportunity to turn their season around in what promises to be an intense derby.


Arsenal:

Arsenal arrives at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium under a cloud of controversy following their 1-1 draw with Brighton & Hove Albion. The match was marred by Declan Rice's contentious sending-off, which led to Brighton’s equalizer and denied Arsenal a perfect start to the season. Despite this setback, the Gunners have performed well, sitting 4th in the Premier League and showing resilience in previous encounters with Tottenham, winning their last two league matches against them. However, Arsenal will face a challenge without Rice, a key midfield presence. Historically, Arsenal has a strong record against Tottenham, having won two consecutive Premier League fixtures, and will aim to extend this positive run while overcoming their recent disappointment.

Prediction:  2-1
