On Saturday evening, visiting Tottenham take on London rivals Arsenal in the North London derby. 

Background information, news and team form

Arsenal are going through one of the worst periods of their current history. After five rounds played, Arsenal find themselves in 13th place with 6 points, and they can still talk about the luck of picking up some points, thanks to scruffy 1-0 wins over Norwich and Burnley. The Canaries aren't troubled by one defensive performance under Mikel Arteta, but this season they also lack the attacking drive they displayed last season. The duo of Aubameyang, Lacazette have only managed to score a single goal so far, plus there is talk of their winter or summer departures. One factor that at least plays into the Canaries' hands is the fact that they have only lost once in the last 5 North London derbies, and that was in the English League Cup. If Arsenal can dominate this derby, it could be the stepping stone to the improved performance that Mikel Arteta's team needs.

Tottenham entered the new season with a new manager, Nuno Espirito Santo, who previously managed Wolverhampton Wanderers. For the very first game of the season, the lot assigned Tottenham probably the toughest test it could get in the highest English competition, a duel with the reigning champion - Manchester City. But Tottenham coped with this challenge admirably, managing to win 1-0 after a goal by Son Heung - Mina. The match with the former employer of Santo - Wolverhampton followed, which the wards of the Portuguese competition also managed by the result of 1:0. The next match with Watford ended in a 1-0 victory, followed by defeats in the London derby against Crystal Palace and Chelsea. Here it can be seen that the Roosters are not very good at London derbies this season and they will have to be very careful for the duel with Arsenal.
