Tottenham take on Arsenal in 210th edition of the North London derby as Ange Postecoglu aims for his first win in this crucial fixture.
The Gunners won 3-2 away at Spurs in 2023/24, to record successive away EPL wins at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, in Mikel Arteta's 100th Premier League win in charge.
However, the opportunity for a key victory is open for Spurs, if they can produce a consistent performance against their fiercest rivals.

Harry Kane's 2023 departure to Bayern Munich removed the derby's most prolific figure as the England captain bowed out as the highest scoring player in the game's history.
Kane's 14 goals against Arsenal made him a Spurs hero and an Arsenal villain in equal measure.
Team | Player | Goals |
Tottenham | Harry Kane | 14 |
Arsenal/Tottenham | Emmanuel Adebayor | 10 |
Arsenal | Robert Pires | 9 |
Tottenham | Son Heung-min | 7 |
Arsenal | Ian Wright | 6 |
However, his old strike partner Son Heung-min has ably stepped in as captain and the South Korean can set his own derby record in this game.
Son is currently tied with former Arsenal pair Robin van Persie and Theo Walcott on five EPL assists each in North London derbies and an assist today will make the 32-year-old the outright leader.
He scored home and away against Arsenal last season in a repeat of his double against them in 2021/22.
