Tottenham have never before been so far above Arsenal going into a Premier League north London derby, but will form count for anything on Sunday?
Spurs, who are top of the table after 10 matches and have not lost in the league since the opening weekend of the season, are guaranteed to be at least 12 places above the Gunners at kick-off.
Their previous biggest advantage was 11 places, when Spurs were 10th and Arsenal were 21st before they met on the second weekend of the 1993-94 campaign. Arsenal won that game 1-0.
"Arsenal's performance in the win against Manchester United at the start of November was excellent," BBC Sport football expert Mark Lawrenson said.
