Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal will meet at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday afternoon for the 195th North London derby, with Spurs chasing a place in next season’s UEFA Champions League and the Gunners looking to take a step closer to a potential Premier League title triumph.
The teams played out a cracking 2-2 draw in their meeting at the Emirates Stadium in September 2023, with Tottenham’s Son Heung-min twice pegging Arsenal back. Gunners manager Mikel Arteta acknowledges that Spurs, under counterpart Ange Postecoglou, will be tough opponents, especially in their own back yard.
“Obviously they have a new manager who has done really, really well and changed the vibe and everything around the club. It’s a different style as well, so [we need to] adapt to that, be ourselves and produce the performance that we need to beat them,” said the Spanish tactician.
Arsenal’s title rivals, Liverpool and Manchester City, will be in action on Saturday and Sunday respectively. The Reds will visit West Ham United, while the Citizens travel to the City Ground to face Nottingham Forest.
Forest are fighting against the threat of relegation and will be hungry to cause an upset, according to manager Nuno Espirito Santo – a tactician who famously masterminded some impressive Wolverhampton Wanderers and Tottenham Hotspur performances against the team in sky blue.
“City is going to be tough, we have no doubts about it. They’re a fantastic team, with a fantastic manager and fantastic players, the way they play. We have to prepare ourselves for it, but have the ambition to compete and win if it becomes possible,” said the Portuguese.
Other matches to look out for include Fulham and Crystal Palace meeting in a London derby; Manchester United hosting Burnley at Old Trafford; Everton host Brentford in a key match in their fight against relegation; Aston Villa will target a home win against Chelsea in Saturday’s late kick; and Sunday also offers up a South Coast derby between Bournemouth and Brighton & Hove Albion.
