Tottenham vs. Arsenal in the EPL A Derby with dominance and an undefeated streak on the line

Tottenham vs. Arsenal in the EPL A Derby with dominance and an undefeated streak on the line
The North London Derby is in a delicate balance this Sunday.


Comparable records separate Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur going into their Premier League matchup at the Emirates.


Both teams have 13 points after their first five games.


After thrashing PSV 4-0 in the Champions League midweek, Mikel Arteta's team enters the tantalizing match.


In contrast, the league has struggled to score goals. Only Arsenal has scored more than ten goals among the top seven teams.


Arteta seems to be taking a slightly more cautious approach to his team's offensive play. Even the most upbeat Spurs supporters, though, will not be holding out hope to preserve the Gunners' record of nine Premier League goals intact this weekend.


Since Ange Postecoglou took over, Tottenham have not lost a league game, and thus far this season, they have only outperformed a perfect Manchester City.


Since Arsenal and Spurs first faced off in a competitive North London derby in 1896, Sunday's match will mark the 208th such match.


The arch-rivals of Arteta's team, who have gone an unfortunate 13 years without winning a top-flight game on Emirates soil, have lost just one of their past five encounters with them.


It will be the first Derby without Harry Kane, Arsenal's primary troublemaker.


Arteta said of Kane, "Well obviously he's a tremendous player and everything was flowing through him.


"He was the one who held everything together, and he accomplished this in a variety of ways from throughout the pitch.


It's a little bit different now. They definitely have a distinct style than the last two coaches, in my opinion.


"I think it's a very different team," the player said. "They have some specificity in some movements that they make with certain players."
