Tottenham Hotspur is getting ready for one of the biggest North London derbies in recent memory against Arsenal.
With a lot on the line, Ange Postecoglou’s Spurs will “welcome” Mikel Arteta’s Gunners to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday.
If Tottenham wins at N17, it will increase their chances of placing in the top four of the Premier League and severely harm Arsenal’s prospects of winning the championship.
Nevertheless, given their current momentum, the Gunners will need to maintain pressure on Manchester City if they prevail.
Given his strong record against Arsenal, Tottenham’s captain Son Heung-min will obviously need to be playing at his best on Sunday.
Son has faced the Gunners in 19 meetings throughout the years, tallying two assists and seven goals.
Postecoglou praised the £22 million man during his pre-match press conference on Friday.

The Spurs manager responded to a question about Son’s significance in derbies by saying, “Yeah look, vital because he has got the experience and at least two or three of our guys this will be their first experience of a home north London derby,” as reported by football.london.
“You rely on the guys who have experienced it firsthand and have excelled in that area.” Without a doubt, Sonny has done that.
He’s been a key player for this football team for a while, and he’s excited about the extra accountability that comes with being the captain this time around.

“I am eager to observe how Sunday unfolds.”
It will be interesting to watch how Son performs in one of the most significant games the team has played in a long time because he has been a star for Tottenham over the past ten years.
