Harry Kane leads Tottenham as Arsenal make the short trip to their north London neighbours in the derby.
Spurs’ talisman needs two goals to become the club’s all-time top scorer over Jimmy Greaves, who has the record with 266 goals. It would also take him into the Premier League’s 200 club.
“I have a good passion for football. I like to stay very close to my players to share the emotions with them. I’m enjoying my time being the coach of such an important club in England, with the environment, with the players and with the fans,” Conte said ahead of the derby, before reflecting on his time at the club.
“To get a place in the Champions League last season, that was a big, big achievement for us,” he said. “The other aspect that I like a lot, we are building a solid foundation for the present and for the future. I’m really proud of the work that we are doing.”
