High-stakes North London Derby
Tottenham Hotspur Women sit fifth in the Super League Women 2025/2026 standings after taking 29 points from 18 games and head to the Emirates on Saturday knowing that they need a win to keep pace with the top-four in the table.
Spurs are coming off a losing streak in their previous two games, and have won just 2 of their last 5, although they have taken 2 wins from their last 3 Super League Women away games.
Martin Ho has made Tottenham into a pragmatic side since taking over at the end of July 2025, with Spurs favoring a direct, fast-paced game in transition and aggressive pressing. They’ve conceded 20 goals in 9 Super League Women 2025/2026 road trips this season, an average of 2.22 per game.
Arsenal, by contrast, have a much more possession-based, high-pressing style, as Renee Slegers has honed them into a dominant side since October 2024. Slegers has an eye for detail, with Arsenal able to control the ball and build in a structured way while also being extremely aggressive in transition when they win it back.
Back the Gunners to take the Derby
Home form
Arsenal have won 3 consecutive home games, including a dominant 5-0 win over West Ham United Women in their most recent Super League Women 2025/2026 fixture. They are unbeaten at home in the league, with 5 wins and 3 draws from 8 fixtures. Slegers’ team are rock-solid at the back with just 4 goals conceded in 8 Super League Women 2025/2026 fixtures at the Emirates.
Odds and outlook
Arsenal will be expected to come out on top in this derby, sitting fourth in the Super League Women 2025/2026 table after taking 35 points from 16 matches. Odds of 1.22 look extremely favorable for the home team, who are in better form than Spurs, are at home and have won 3 of the last 5 matchups between these sides.
Spurs have won just 4 of their 9 Super League Women 2025/2026 games away this season, with 1 draw and 4 defeats. This clash will be a clash of styles as Arsenal’s control and pressing meets Tottenham’s speed and directness, with the result likely to be a lively, attacking game.
Expect goals when these sides meet
Back over 2.5 goals at 1.44, as these two North London rivals should provide plenty of goalmouth action, and a home win for Arsenal looks likely.
- Spurs are prone to leaking goals on the road, but they also have some attacking talent, with Bethany England leading the line with 6 goals in 18 Super League Women 2025/2026 matches.
- However, Stina Blackstenius remains the bigger threat for Arsenal, netting 7 times in 14 appearances in the league this campaign.
