Arsenal vs Tottenham: Sunday, November 6th at Emirates Stadium, London
The History
Universally accepted as one of the biggest derbies in English football, the North London Derby holds a special place in the hearts of both Arsenal and Spurs fans and is, without a doubt, one of the first fixtures they look for when the season schedule is released. On November 6TH we’ll see the latest chapter in a rivalry that dates back over 100 years, and that will undoubtedly play a significant role in determining the prospects of two sides who will be challenging for a top four position come the end of the season. Both games last season between the sides saw a share of the spoils, with Spurs pulling in front at the Emirates through Harry Kane, only for Kieran Gibbs to snatch a point for the home side with a little over ten minutes remaining in a game that finished 1-1. In March the two sides battled to another draw as the match finished 2-2 in a highly entertaining match at White Hart Lane that saw Arsenal take the lead shortly before half-time through Aaron Ramsey, only for Spurs to take the lead with two goals in as many minutes from Toby Alderweireld and that man again, Harry Kane. There will be more than a few Spurs fans who will look on last season as somewhat of a failure, as their side spent much of the season chasing surprise package Leicester City only to falter as the season drew to a close, and to add insult to injury lose out on 2nd place to their North London rivals by a mere point.Key additions
As the summer transfer window drew to a close, Arsenal fans could have been forgiven for feeling as though they’d been down this road before. Despite the squad crying out for reinforcements, once again manager Arsene Wenger had been reluctant to spend any real money, with 23-year-old Swiss midfielder Granit Xhaka, who was brought in from Borussia Monchengladbach of the German Bundesliga back in May for a fee rumoured to be in the region of £30 million, being the only signing worthy of note.![Shkodran Mustafi Signs with Arsenal](/sites/default/files/tg_blog_files/2016/09/shkodran-mustafi-300x300.jpg)
