Tottenham haven't just been bad in the first half of Premier League matches this season, they've been downright awful. Even without those outliers, second halves generally feature more goals in this sport as we saw on full display at the World Cup. - The home side has not suffered defeat in this rivalry since December 2018 when Arsenal fell 2-0 in EFL Cup action, a run of eight matches. As mentioned previously, Spurs struggle mightily before halftime, an ailment that has plagued them all campaign, but they are explosive after the break. Arsenal, meanwhile, have a boatload of players in excellent form that will carry them to victory here. Spurs, meanwhile, are fifth in the table, knowing points in this match would be exceptionally valuable in the race for a Champions League spot. However, with such rivalry matches being hotly contested despite table position and the recent swing towards the home club, Spurs are given a fighting chance in this match, with Arsenal into plus odds territory. Nketiah was blanked by Newcastle in his last Premier League appearance. A Gunners loss could see four clubs with a shot to win the title.

The ball came in from the right and the Tottenham players all decided they weren't going to touch it, meaning the ball just sat in front of goal like a lonely lamb. Romero was the first to decide this was a bad idea and he launched the ball into the sky and away from goal. And the weather is lovely. the atmosphere is going to surely play a huge part today! Everyone else is packed in the Spurs side of the pitch. Somehow the goalkeeper got a leg to the ball. Saka plays the ball centrally to the Norwegian from the right wing. Arteta will be a happy man as his team pressed crazily in the first half, and knew the right moments to pounce in the second. "Then a fan jumped over and gave me a little punch in the back. "We can still improve a lot of things, you see today the difference between the first and second half. "And today, we played against a strong team but, at the same time, I don't have a great disappointment at the commitment of my players. "The keeper made a fantastic save today and Arsenal are a difficult opponent now, like Manchester City.

Kulusevski rolls Xhaka and plays the ball into Kane on the edge of the area. “The biggest asterisk on Arsenal’s position is that because of the scheduling this year, they have only played two of the six possible games against the other top four teams, and have failed to register a win in them,” says Vibhanshu Bisht. “I reckon Bale (and a few others) belong in the SHEEP tier (sometimes heroic, extremely exceptional players). That’s the kind of thing that often leads to it kicking off on the touchline. He takes a touch and hits a shot that deflects over the crossbar. 55 min Kulusevski is keen to take a quick throw, and Arteta throws the ball away from him. 87 min The free-kick is a fair way to the left of centre, though not prohibitively so. That’s what happened, and it’s a shame as it’s just a game of football at the end of the day. Kane rolls Gabriel cleverly, breaks down the right and cuts the ball back to Son at the near post. In the second they showed their defensive resilience and game management, although they needed Aaron Ramsdale to make one terrific save and a handful of good ones. Bissouma hooks his leg round to make a good challenge – but then kicks the ball against Dier and out of play. Before that, Richarlison shoved Ramsdale’s head, though I’m not sure what happened before that because the cameras were on a (perfectly civil) handshake between Arteta and Conte.

Tottenham: Conte will get an injury boost as Dejan Kulusevski could return to the fold for this match. It will come too soon for Richarlison but midfielder Yves Bissouma will also return to the attack. Everything has come up in Arsenal's favor this weekend but can they avoid a banana peel in an away trip to face rivals Tottenham in the North London Derby on Sunday? If Son shows up, Spurs can certainly secure a point, but with Arsenal's balanced attack, they're the odds on favorites. Mikel Arteta has created a team that won't roll over in these matches and it'll show when it matters. Spurs are coming off of a 4-0 drubbing of Crystal Palace that will give the team confidence and Harry Kane loves playing in these high stakes rivalry games, but what Antonio Conte will want is someone other than Kane getting involved in the attack.

The latest North London derby was a tale of two halves, albeit tales that favored one side in both. Tottenham vs Arsenal was also a tale of two goalkeepers.

The Gunners could be just two points clear of Man City at kickoff, but they could also have a chance to stretch their table advantage as high as eight. Spurs have not lost a home Premier League derby to Arsenal in eight-straight, with only two draws and the last one coming in March 2019. Emery, Emi driving Aston Villa forward (Aston Villa 2-1 Leeds): Leon Bailey opened the scoring in the 3rd minute, when Boubacar Kamara went on a long dribble through the center of the field before finding the Jamaican international cutting in from the right wing. Captain Lloyd Kelly, midfielder Jefferson Lerma, and hard man Philip Billing were all in the fold when Bournemouth was relegated to the Championship and were the club’s best hopes of getting something out of the team. Going the other way across the relegation line is West Ham (15 points), who have now taken all of one point from their last seven PL games. Wolves climb out of bottom three, leaving Irons there (Wolves 1-0 West Ham): Daniel Podence capped a quick Wolves counter-attack in the 48th minute, scoring the game’s only goal with a smashing strike from the top of the penalty area. And this is four-straight defeats for Leicester (17 points), who now find themselves just two points above the relegation zone. Foxes can’t get through Trees, who now loom above (Nottingham Forest 2-0 Leicester): “The victory sees Forest climb from 16th to 13th in the Premier League table, now four points clear over the relegation zone. Sluggish Liverpool run off pitch by Seagulls (Brighton 3-0 Liverpool): There are excuses for the Reds with injuries and fixture congestion but they weren’t excuses Jurgen Klopp would accept in previous years (and certainly not against non-traditional powers). Their squad is good enough to be challenging for the top four but their recent run has undone all of their good work at the start of the season and finishing above Manchester United and Newcastle seems very unlikely at this point. It is the blueprint for their success and this performance was eerily similar to so many of their wins this season. Chelsea has some work to do while surprising Fulham and Brighton are hanging around on the periphery and are having fine campaigns.

Arsenal have a commanding lead at the top of the Premier League after defeating Tottenham in the North London derby.

Spurs' keeper dithers over the ball and is closed down, then Clement Lenglet's clearance is blocked and suddenly Eddie Nketiah has a chance. He cuts into the box and fires the ball across goal from the byline, straight at the Spurs keeper, who parries it into the net. It's 2-0 to the Gunners and it's no more than they deserve. Hojbjerg volleys wide after the resulting corner and that's the last action of the half. 66th min: Fine defending there from Gabriel to stop Harry Kane getting a clear shot at goal from inside the box. The Arsenal section are having a party in the corner. After the break, Spurs finally offered some threat, and that's where Ramsdale came into his own to ensure there was no sniff of a comeback. Son Heung-min was denied by a good Ramsdale save soon afterwards, but the error from their captain seemed to cause Spurs to wilt and Arsenal assumed control. Knowing Arsenal's tendency to start well, Spurs needed to hold firm in the opening exchanges to make this a real contest.

There are rarely small North London derbies, but this one's huge: first-place Arsenal visits top-four hopeful Spurs on Sunday at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
