The standout match in the Premier League this weekend is the North London Derby; one of England’s oldest rivalries — Tottenham vs. Arsenal.

The Gunners will travel to rivals Tottenham looking to respond following a draw against Brighton before the international break. But, which North London giant will claim the points on Sunday?

Before Betting on the Premier League

Fierce rivals collide in the Premier League on Sunday, as Arsenal make the short trip to Tottenham. This weekend’s clash comes at a crucial time for both teams, as Spurs and the Gunners both endured underwhelming results before the international break. There will be increased pressure on Mikel Arteta’s side on Sunday, as they come into this showdown without Declan Rice and Martin Odegaard.

Arsenal’s perfect start to the season was ended before the break for international fixtures, as they could only hold on to a home draw against Brighton. Rice’s sending off ultimately cost the Gunners maximum points, but the North London side could move to the summit with maximum points on Sunday.

The pressure could be increasing on Ange Postecoglou at this early stage of the season, as Spurs have made a slow start to the campaign after winning just once in their opening three matches. A response will be expected from Spurs this weekend against their biggest rivals after falling to a 2-1 defeat against Newcastle in their latest outing.

It is worth considering Arsenal’s excellent record in this fixture before making picks on Sunday. The Gunners have avoided defeat in their last four league matches against Tottenham, landing three wins across that period.

Arteta’s side has also won on their last two trips to Spurs, including a 3-2 success at the end of last season. Tottenham’s last home win against their rivals was in May 2022.
