All eyes turn to north London once more this weekend as the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium hosts the WSL’s eighth edition of the famous derby. Over 20,000 are expected to watch an encounter featuring two sides at very different stages in their development as a growing Tottenham host league heavyweights Arsenal.
There are more than bragging rights at stake. Arsenal are focused on mounting challenging Chelsea’s dominance and a win would ensure they stay neck and neck with the champions. Meanwhile Robert Vilahamn’s Tottenham are looking to show they have closed the gap on their rivals and cement their position in mid-table, providing them with a solid platform to build on in 2024.
