Tottenham Hotspur vs Arsenal Preview

Tottenham Hotspur vs Arsenal

Competition – English Premier League

Stadium: Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

Date: 22nd February 2026

Kick-off time – 16:30 GMT

Tottenham Hotspur host Arsenal at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday evening in one of English football’s most fiercely contested rivalries, with kick-off at 16:30 GMT. Spurs go into this north London derby in difficult form, their most recent outing a 1-2 home defeat to Newcastle United on February 10th. Prior to that, they suffered a 2-0 loss away at Manchester United, with an earlier 2-2 home draw against Manchester City also in this five-game sequence. A 2-0 away win at Eintracht Frankfurt in Europe represents the sole victory in this spell. The numbers tell a concerning story for Spurs — 36 goals scored on the season, a goal difference of -1, and 37 conceded — and they will need a significant improvement in both defensive solidity and attacking output to trouble an Arsenal side that has been in considerably better shape.

Arsenal arrive in north London unbeaten in their last five, a run that includes three wins and two draws. Their most recent outing ended in a 2-2 draw away at Wolverhampton Wanderers on February 18th. Prior to that, the Gunners hammered Wigan Athletic 4-0 at home in the FA Cup and drew 1-1 away at Brentford. Earlier in this sequence, Arsenal won 3-0 at home to Sunderland and 1-0 at home to Chelsea in the Carabao Cup — results that reflect both the depth and quality in their squad. The season stats underline their credentials: 52 goals scored, a goal difference of +32, 36 assists, and only 20 conceded. By every metric, Arsenal are the superior side heading into this fixture, and they will carry that confidence into enemy territory.

The head-to-head record over the last five meetings is dominated by Arsenal, who have won four times to Tottenham’s one. Arsenal’s victories include a 4-1 home win in November 2025, a 2-1 home win in January 2025, and away wins at Spurs — 1-0 in September 2024 and 3-2 in April 2024. Tottenham’s sole win in this recent run was a 1-0 away victory at Arsenal in a Club Friendly in July 2025.
