The North London Derby returns this Sunday at 16:30, and Arsenal come into this massive fixture with strong form, confidence and a point to prove. The atmosphere around N7 will be electric, and The George Pub at 9 Eden Grove N78EE, known as the best Arsenal pub in London and the closest pub to Emirates Stadium, is ready for one of the biggest match days of the season.

Arsenal and Tottenham face each other in one of footballs most intense derbies. Arsenal traditionally step up on these occasions, especially at home where energy, pressing and speed often overwhelm the opponent. With Artetas structured and aggressive style, Arsenal will look to dominate midfield, push Spurs back and create danger through quick transitions.

Key players such as Bukayo Saka, Declan Rice and Gabriel Martinelli are expected to play crucial roles in breaking Tottenham down. Tottenham remain dangerous with pace, but their defensive gaps give Arsenal a clear edge. A narrow Arsenal win such as 2 1 or 2 0 is a realistic outcome based on recent performances and tactical balance.

Arsenal approach the derby with several players still being assessed for fitness. Captain Martin Ødegaard is recovering from an MCL issue and will undergo a late fitness test. Kai Havertz is also close to returning from a knee problem but remains doubtful for the weekend.

Noni Madueke is unavailable for a few weeks due to a knee injury. Gabriel Martinelli is recovering from a muscular issue and is unlikely to feature, although he has not been fully ruled out. Viktor Gyökeres remains sidelined with a hamstring injury. Gabriel Magalhães picked up a muscle problem on international duty and is doubtful for the derby. Gabriel Jesus continues his long recovery from an ACL injury and is unavailable.

Located at 9 Eden Grove N78EE, The George Pub is the closest pub to Emirates Stadium and widely recognised as the best pub in Islington. On derby days it becomes the natural meeting point for Gooners from all over London and beyond.
