Tottenham and Arsenal meet again this weekend, and we have now attempted to forecast how the North London Derby might unfold.

Tottenham Hotspur are finally back in action after a two-week break on Sunday, and it is a clash against their biggest rivals, Arsenal, up next.

Spurs would be hoping to get back to winning ways in the league following their 2-2 draw against United, but standing in their way is Mikel Arteta’s side, who sit top of the Premier League table.

A victory against the Gunners would be a big statement by new boss Thomas Frank, but recent form points more to an Arsenal win than a Spurs victory.

We have now attempted to predict the North London derby ahead of this weekend’s clash.

Arsenal vs Tottenham score prediction with Tottenham and Spurs key details

Arsenal have definitely been the better side in this fixture in recent years, as they are unbeaten in the last six encounters against Spurs in the Premier League.

Frank has not had the best of relationships with Tottenham fans, who have booed him in two big games already this season against United and Chelsea, but all could well be forgotten with a good result against local rivals Arsenal.

MORE SPURS STORIES

Tottenham have an impressive away form this term, having maintained an unbeaten run away from home all season.

However, their record at the Emirates in the Premier League is rather poor, with no Spurs wins in their last ten games. Securing a victory will be a tough ask, and that is why we are predicting a 2-2 draw.

Richarlison and Cristian Romero spark Spurs result

We do expect Arsenal to start this league fixture strongly, but Spurs will grab a goal against the run of play. A Richarlison goal from a brilliant slip through by Mohammed Kudus will be enough to give Tottenham the lead at the midway point of the first half.

The Gunners, however, will respond rather quickly, grabbing an equaliser before the break from a corner with a header from Saliba. Saka will give them a 2-1 lead before the 60-minute mark, with Arsenal then choosing to protect what they have.

Tottenham will draw level with a corner of their own, with club captain Cristian Romero equalising in the final moments with 15 minutes to spare.

Both sides will push for the win, but the North London Derby will ultimately see Spurs keep their unbeaten run on the road, while Arsenal slip up once more in the title race.
