All eyes will be on north London Saturday lunchtime when Arsenal host Tottenham in a monstrous Premier League encounter on Sky Sports Premier League.
The north London derby is the sixth highest scoring fixture in Premier League history. Whether it's brilliance by David Bentley or heroics from Thierry Henry, there have been some magical moments over the years.
Mauricio Pochettino, who could celebrate his 100th victory as Spurs boss, has yet to lose a Premier League north London derby as the shift of power has swung away from Arsene Wenger's side.
However, Arsenal have won their opening five home Premier League games for the first time since 2009 and Tottenham have won one of their last 24 Premier League visits to Arsenal.
Arsenal will hand late fitness tests to Shkodran Mustafi and Danny Welbeck.
Mustafi has been sidelined since the start of October with a hamstring issue, while a groin injury suffered in the 2-1 defeat at Watford has kept Welbeck out for the past month.
Both could be in contention to face Spurs although Olivier Giroud is out after injuring his thigh on international duty with France while Santi Cazorla (ankle) is a long-term absentee.
Harry Kane is among a number of Tottenham players set for late fitness tests.
Kane is hoping to shake off a knee injury while Dele Alli (hamstring), Harry Winks (ankle), Hugo Lloris (groin) and Michel Vorm (knee) will also have to be assessed.
Toby Alderweireld and Victor Wanyama remain out with hamstring and knee problems respectively, while Erik Lamela has only recently recovered from a long-standing hip injury.
I am going to go for the draw, but that's only in the hope! If both teams turn up, you just see Tottenham winning. I think home advantage in a tight game, I like to go 1-1.
For Arsenal fans, if they come away with a 1-1 draw and can stop Tottenham winning the league, I think that is how it has now got at the moment as Arsenal are not going to win the league! As long as the Tottenham players have had a good rest, they did not go away on international duty, which is a big advantage, so I think Arsenal will settle for a draw.
PAUL PREDICTS: 1-1 (Sky Bet odds 11/2)
Arsenal are Sky Bet's slight favourites for Saturday's north London derby, priced at 7/5 for the win, with Tottenham at 9/5 and the draw coming at 5/2. However it's Kane who leads the first goal-scorer market at 100/30, with Alexandre Lacazette and Olivier Giroud considered equal threat for the hosts and both priced at 9/2 apiece to break the deadlock.
In Sky Bet's Price Boosts, Kane and Alexis Sanchez both to find the net is enhanced from 7/2 to 11/2, while Christian Eriksen is 15/2 to net from outside the area.
