This weekend's Premier League
The big game: the North London derby! The Arsenal face Tottenham Hotspur at home!
Incoming!
Let's start by helping our new friends by explaining why the game between these two teams is called the North London Derby:
First, of course, because of the location:
Above is an abbreviated map of London, the blue line in the center is the famous River Thames, north of the river bank is called North London, south is South London, the Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur
Both located north of London and in the same central location, it's not hard to imagine that two clubs so close to each other would have a (fan) sphere of influence battle.
Secondly, there is the entanglement of history, the centuries-old factor of position.
From 1887, the first friendly match between the two teams was played at Hotspur
The hosts, Arsenal, were 15 minutes late on purpose, and there was no lighting in the stadium at that time, so the game ended early due to the "darkness of the day". (In the end, Hyogo took the victory)
Next, in 1913, the Arsenal moved from Woolwich in South London to Highbury in North London, a short distance from Tottenham Hotspur.
With the White Hart Lane stadium just four miles away, it's almost as if Spurs are coming to central London to get a piece of the action and steal the fans! This move has naturally caused Tottenham Hotspur to
The club's management was displeased, though protests were ineffective and the Arsenal officially moved to the legendary Highbury Stadium.
The start of the official move towards world hatred came in 1919, when the English First Division was to be expanded by two team places, with first-placed 19th-placed Chelsea
(Chelsea F.C.) escaped relegation, while the remaining spot was supposed to go to 20th-placed Tottenham Hotspur
Or Barnsley F.C., who finished first in League Two, but in the end it was surprisingly sixth-placed Arsenal who got promoted, Spurs
Hard pushed into the Second Division. There were also whispers that Sir Henry, the chairman of the Arsenal
(Sir Henry Norris) seems to have been running the voting results under the table, and this has created a big problem! Fans of both teams began to look at each other in a bad light, after all, they were already fierce rivals.
In fact, just a few words can not be clear about these deep-rooted in the DNA of the local fans of the derby plot, more from the cultural side, the media propaganda to come from the confrontation so that this topic has continued to this day, a few days ago FIFA 15 launched the launch of the meeting, but also happened to the Arsenal fans with Tottenham Hotspur!

Theo Walcott, the Arsenal star, also provoked Tottenham by making the 2-0 sign as he was carried off injured during the game.
Fans.
It can be seen that such a sense of confrontation has been deeply rooted in the hearts of fans and players, although not in London we may not be able to have such a strong feeling, but know that after such a background to watch the game is also more passionate, there is a kind of: anyone can lose, is the Gunners / Stingers do not want to lose to him! The feeling of "anyone can lose, but the Gunners/Spurs don't want to lose to him".
Time to pull back to the present, the first North London Derby of the 14-15 season will be kicked off at 00:30am Taiwan time on Sunday 9/28, when everyone should prepare a beer snack and a refreshing drink beforehand, Tottenham Hotspur
Fans please be prepared to drop the unbreakable air toys as I'm pretty confident that with the recent Tottenham Hotspur
The backline of the defense was so good that goalkeeper Hugo Lloris wouldn't have had a good 90 minutes, regardless of whether the result was a loss or a win!
As for what highlights you can look out for in this game, I reckon you can look out for Black Bay's comeback, Tottenham's

Including me, the Gunners in the transfer of the initial
After all, the market was looking for a striker like Edinson Cavani or Radamel Falcao, but Welbeck quickly caught the eye of Gunners fans with his on-field performances, and although he has only scored one goal so far, his agile running and quality shooting have already made people look forward to his next performance. Although he has only scored one goal so far, his agile running and quality shooting have made people look forward to his next performance.
With Giroud out and new signing Alexis Sánchez preferring to operate on the wing, the Gunners badly need Welbeck at Tottenham Hotspur
The Gunners' midfielders have been creating space for the Gunners' midfielders by stirring up the backline and constantly tugging at the offside line, so Welbeck's form will be crucial to the Gunners' ability to take down Tottenham Hotspur.
Vital.

Tottenham Hotspur's last three league games
They conceded six goals, 20 in the Premier League.
The third worst team in the division, with wins over Newcastle and Everton (each conceding 9 goals).

The backline looks pretty good when spread out, with Jan Vertonghen, Younes Kaboul, Eric Dier, Rose
（Danny Rose, Vlad Chiriches, Ben Davies and Federico Fazio, who has yet to play in the league. However, these players are not good at single defense, and the new coach Mauricio Pochettino has not yet confirmed the ideal combination of defense in his mind, the players have to adapt to the coach's high defense strategy on the one hand, and on the other hand, they have to cultivate a tacit understanding, so it can only be said that the frequent mistakes are not a surprise.
