Tottenham Hotspur will travel across London to take on Arsenal in the North London Derby this weekend.
And we can promise you this is going to be a cracker.
A couple of weeks ago, Arsenal and Liverpool played out one of the most entertaining games in the Premier League this season and many believe this Derby will even surpass that.
One such player is Spurs keeper Hugo Lloris who feels the North London Derby is more than just a game.
“We know it is more than a game for both clubs and for both [sets of] fans,” Hugo Lloris said.
“Now we have time to recover and to prepare as well as possible but that type of game you play more with passion and desire.
“It is the type of game we all want to play and we are all excited to play.
“It is going to be interesting to face Arsenal this season with a new manager.
“They have a good energy and they have had some very good results in the last few weeks so it is going to be a very good game for both teams.
“We are building our season step by step,
“The main target is to keep our place in the top four.
“You need to accept the context. It is still one more season [of being] homeless. We need to deal with Wembley [for] another season. We don’t know until when.
“It demands a lot of energy but we are ready to deal with that. We have no choice.
“We will see where we will be in the second part of the season if we still have a chance or not.
“But for me, Liverpool and Man City are both favourites for the title.
“We will see because a lot of things can happen, especially during the Boxing Day. Many teams lose chances and lose points.”
Arsenal are currently fifth on the Premier League table and if they were to beat Tottenham during the weekend then Unai Emery’s men will be able to break into the top four of the league table.
