The dates for next season's Premier League North London Derbies have been revealed.
Arsenal will host Tottenham at the Emirates Stadium on the 1st of October 2022 after what looks like a relatively kind opening set of fixtures for them, while Spurs have a tougher-looking start to the season. The return fixture at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium will take place on January 14th 2023 in the first weekend of Premier League fixtures after the FA Cup third round.
Last season Arsenal ran out 3-1 winners in the opening clash of the season between these two local rivals in September. Goals from Emile Smith Rowe, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Bukayo Saka were enough to claim a victory that got the Gunners' season up and running after a slow start that had left them bottom of the table after just three games. While it was a positive day for Mikel Arteta it proved to be the first of many nails in the coffin for Nuno Espirito Santo.
