Arsenal will be hoping to avoid setting a new record against their fiercest rivals as they host Tottenham in the latest edition of the north London derby today.
Spurs are unbeaten against the Gunners in five games and Arsenal have never in their history gone six matches without a win against their rivals.
When the sides met at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in December, goals from Heung-min Son and Harry Kane secured a comfortable win to send Spurs top of the Premier League table and left Arsenal in 15th.
Tottenham’s title challenge has since evaporated and they now sit seventh, while the Gunners have moved into the top half of the table, but three wins on the spin will have Spurs confident of a first league victory at the Emirates Stadium since 2010.
Date, time and venue
Arsenal vs Tottenham is scheduled for a 4.30pm GMT kick-off today - Sunday, March 14, 2021.
The match will be held behind closed doors at Emirates Stadium due to ongoing Government restrictions surrounding Covid-19.

Arsenal vs Tottenham prediction
Both teams have improved of late, with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Bale rediscovering their scoring touch while the likes of Willian and Son are proving fine creative assets.
However a mixture of concerns at the back, and Jose Mourinho’s usual tactical plan for such games, means it could be a cagey affair.
1-1 draw.
