Tottenham scored the first goal in the North London derby.
Tottenham faces Arsenal in a 35th round home match of the English Premier League (EPL) for the 2023-2024 season at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, England on Sunday. It is a traditional rivalry between the two teams based in North London.
Tottenham is currently busy with a long way to go. With 18 wins, six draws, and eight losses, it is ranking fifth with 60 points, six points behind Aston Villa (66 points), which is the Maginot Line for the UEFA Champions League. To qualify for the UCL, Tottenham needs to pile up points one by one.
In desperate need of three points, they are in danger. They are being dragged away after conceding the first goal in the 15th minute of the first half against North London's rival Arsenal. Pierre-Emile Hoivere scored an own goal in a corner kick.
Arsenal, which is in the race to win the championship, has elevated the mood. With 24 wins, five draws, and five losses, it is currently in first place with 77 points, one point ahead of Manchester City (76 points), which had one less game. If they score three points on the day, they will beat Manchester City by four points to confirm their place on the first place.
