The North London derby is this Sunday and promises to be a cracker if form is anything to go by.
Neither team will want to lose as they both look to secure a top four finish this season, and of course gain bragging rights for their fans.
With that said, here are 10 match facts and stats provided by OPTA you should know ahead of the game at the Emirates this weekend:
1. Arsenal haven’t won any of their last six Premier League meetings with Spurs (D4 L2) – their longest ever winless run against their rivals in league competition.
