Pochettino prepared for confrontation with old acquaintance Emery
The upcoming North London Derby, scheduled for this Sunday at the Emirates Stadium, promises to be a thrilling encounter between two fierce rivals – Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal.
Mauricio Pochettino's Tottenham have been in fine form lately, with a recent win against Inter keeping their Champions League hopes alive. The team has also been on a six-game winning streak in all competitions.
Pochettino believes that his team has increased their level against London clubs in recent seasons, and for the derby, he plans to adopt a different approach. He understands the importance of the derby for Tottenham's fans and is eager to deliver a strong performance.
Across the North London divide, Unai Emery has been at the helm of Arsenal since the close season, replacing Arsene Wenger. Arsenal has had an amazing season so far, but the outcome of the derby remains uncertain, as there is still a lot to play for in the remainder of the season.
Pochettino and Emery were rivals during their time in Spain, but they have never faced each other in England before. Despite their competitive history, Pochettino considers Emery a good friend.
Arsenal's current coach, Mikel Arteta, will lead the team against Pochettino's Tottenham. The derby is considered a different game, requiring a specific mentality to play against the Gunners.
As of the current Premier League standings, Tottenham is three points and two places above Arsenal. The period between now and Christmas is expected to be difficult to manage due to the number of upcoming games.
Regardless of the challenges ahead, both teams are prepared for the derby, promising an exciting match for football fans worldwide.
