The North London Derby ended in a dominant 4–1 win for Arsenal over Tottenham Hotspur, strengthening Arsenal’s position at the top of the Premier League table.

The victory restored their five-point lead ahead of Manchester City with 10 matches left, while Tottenham slipped deeper into relegation trouble.

Eberechi Eze was the standout performer, scoring twice and continuing his impressive record against Spurs.

Since joining Arsenal last summer, he has made a huge impact in this fixture.

His clinical finishing and composure once again proved decisive in the derby atmosphere.

Viktor Gyökeres also played a major role, scoring twice in the second half. His goal early after the break restored Arsenal’s lead, and he added another late on to seal the emphatic win.

The partnership between Eze and Gyökeres looked sharp and confident, giving Arsenal strong momentum in the title race.

Tottenham’s only bright moment came when Randal Kolo Muani punished a mistake from Declan Rice to equalize briefly.

However, Arsenal quickly regained control and never looked back.

The response showed resilience that had been questioned in earlier matches this year.

For New Spurs Manager Igor Tudor, it was a harsh introduction to the rivalry.

Tottenham are now only four points above the relegation zone and remain without a league win in 2026.

Tudor admitted there is a “big gap” between the sides and described the defeat as a reality check.

Mikel Arteta, meanwhile, will see this as a statement victory.

Despite a defensive error, his team showed character and attacking quality under pressure.

With just 10 games remaining, Arsenal look focused and determined in their pursuit of the Premier League title.

The derby highlighted two very different realities: Arsenal pushing confidently for the championship, and Tottenham facing a serious battle to avoid relegation.
