Take a look at this Saturday's Arsenal Vs Tottenham Hotspur (Spurs) - English Premier League (EPL) Football Match Preview. Derby matches in football are for all time great delight to watch but only some of them are as stimulating and absorbing as the North London Derby between Arsenal and Tottenham. It is always an immense match for both teams, but due to current setting of points table in which they both share equal points with Gunners had one game in hand, they will be pushing hard to win and take all three points.
Arsene Wenger claims that his team still have the potential to take the premiership this season despite being 11 points behind the leaders, Chelsea, and losing to them decesively 3-0 yesterday. This may be a case of too much wishful thinking but hey, you can't fault him for not maintaining optimism...
It was a mixed night at the UEFA Champions League Tuesday, Arsenal was comfortable with a 2-0 win against Standard Liege and topping their group, meaning that they qualify for the last 16 knock-out stages.

Rather dismal night for Rangers though, losing 2-0 to Stuttgard and bottom in their group, meaning that their European football dream is over for another year.

Wenger's parents owned a bistro called La Croix d'Or in the little French village of Duttlenheim where he would spend hours in the company of the football-loving customers.
