Tottenham are the only Premier League side without a win in 2026, taking just four points from a possible 24. New head coach Igor Tudor — who has won his first game at each of his last five clubs — walks into arguably the toughest possible baptism of fire. Arsenal, meanwhile, are rattled after gifting a 2-2 draw to bottom-club Wolves, with Manchester City now breathing down their necks.

Arsenal’s North London derby dominance, however, is hard to argue with — unbeaten in seven straight PL meetings with Spurs, winning the last three at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Prediction

Tudor’s famous first-game record offers Spurs fans a sliver of hope, and their desperation to drag Arsenal deeper into a title crisis adds intensity. But Spurs’ crippling injury list, wretched home form, and Arsenal’s burning motivation to respond after the Wolves horror show make this a Gunners game.

Prediction: Tottenham Hotspur 1–2 Arsenal
