Antonio Conte dreams about Tottenham defeating Arsenal

When Arsenal visits N17 on Sunday, Antonio Conte and his Tottenham players will be determined to make up for the mistakes made in their previous north London rivalry. Mikel Arteta's squad earned a 3-1 victory to claim the title after going unbeaten in their opening seven Premier League games and trailing the Gunners by just one point before their trip to the Emirates Stadium at the beginning of October.

Spurs simply weren't at their best that day, and as the campaign nears its halfway point, they must strive to exact some sort of revenge on Arsenal, who sit atop the table and are 11 points ahead of them. Tottenham will undoubtedly enter the game with confidence after two straight victories, but on Derby Day, the form book often gets thrown out the window. Tottenham will be cheered on by a loud home crowd.

Conte is confident before the London Derby against Arsenal

When these two teams last faced off at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in May, Spurs' 3-0 victory dealt a crushing blow to Arsenal's hopes of qualifying for the Champions League. Even if it would be good if the Lilywhites were to duplicate the feat this time, three points will have to do since they are now in fifth place and Manchester United and Newcastle United are ahead of them in the standings. With no midweek games to worry about after their European exit, Tottenham had plenty of time on the practice field, which ultimately helped them beat Arsenal to a top-four finish last season. That has not been the case this season, with clubs competing in Europe having to accommodate the World Cup into their timetables, with the exception of the opening few weeks of this campaign.

Son Heung-min responds to Arsenal's inquiries in a forthright way.

Son Heung-min, a forward for Tottenham Hotspur, has admitted he is uninterested in talk of Arsenal's Premier League championship defense. On Sunday, Spurs will play host to the Gunners in the second north London derby of the year in an effort to exact revenge for their loss at the Emirates Stadium in October. There were rumors that a Tottenham victory may have put them in the title race with Arsenal before that 3-1 defeat in the autumn. However, Mikel Arteta's team has subsequently opened up a five-point lead over Antonio Conte's team, who has since fallen down the table.

Son Heung Min gives blunt responses to Arsenal's questions

After Spurs' FA Cup victory against Portsmouth on Saturday, a question about Son's reaction to watching Arsenal's promising season was posed. To be completely honest, he said, "I'm not interested. We lost to them in the road game, so we have a ton of homework to do this week to turn things around. We have a really difficult assignment at home because I believe the fans were quite disappointed when we lost at the Emirates. We may begin once everyone is prepared to jump in with their bodies.
