Match preview
The Premier League is back after an international break with a blockbuster derby in north London on Saturday afternoon when Arsenal host Tottenham Hotspur at the Emirates.
A week after the women’s side made history in the North London Derby, the men’s side are battling for dominance and a chance to remain at the top of the Premier League table.
The hosts have conceded at least one goal in every single one of their last six matches at the Emirates, despite winning every single one.
After countless calls from Tottenham fans to bench the goalless Son Heung-min, Antonio Conte’s bold move against Leicester City paid off as the South Korean national team ended his goal drought in style.
The Lilywhites have fully recovered from their Champions League disappointment against Sporting Lisbon, but the Emirates is not their happiest place as they have won just two of their last seven away games.
