Arsenal v Spurs
Premier League, Sunday, December 2, KO 2.15pm. Live on Sky Sports
ARSENE WENGER had a great record against Spurs and his successor Unai Emery will be hoping to get off to a good start in his first north London derby.
Emery's made a decent start to life at the Emirates and his men trail Spurs by three points and have reached the Europa League knock out stages and of course face them again in the last eight of the Carabao Cup.
So things are looking up for the Gunners who have handled Arsene Wenger's exit much better than Man United took Sir Alex Ferguson's departure – in fact the Red Devils still don't look over Fergie's retirement.
Emery's only home defeat was to Man City and I can see them at least picking up a point in a game that's not easy to call.

The Arsenal gaffer is pals with Mauricio Pochettino but that friendship will be put to one side as Spurs look to build on the midweek Champions League win over Inter Milan.
Pochettino's Spurs have lost just one of their last eight Premier League clashes with the Gunners but won just one of their last 25 away to their rivals and the previous six meetings have seen three defeats without scoring and three 1-1 draws.
Arsenal have drawn their last three home matches and another stalemate here pays 13-5 at 888sport. Not to lose they are 12-25.
Goals are on the cards with both scoring in Arsenal's last six in the Premier league and BTTS pays just 21-50 while a score draw is 3-1 at 888sport.
Harry Kane's strike against Chelsea made it a remarkable 25 goals in 39 derbies and he is evens to score again and 18-5 to net first.
Talking of Kane he has been booked in four of seven league games against the Gunners and is 13-4 for another caution.
Alexandre Lacazette is out and Mesut Ozil doubtful so the onus for Arsenal could fall on Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang he is 11-8 at 888sport to notch at any time.
