How to watch Arsenal vs Tottenham: TV channel and live stream for pre-season north London derby
Arsenal and Tottenham continue their pre-season campaigns on Thursday with the first north London Derby ever held outside the UK. All eyes will be on Mikel Arteta's team selection as Viktor Gyokeres is set to receive his first Arsenal minutes after completing a £55million move from Sporting. Arsenal were crying out for a consistent striker throughout last season, and the hope is that the prolific Swede will help them reach the summit of the Premier League. In the opposite dugout, Thomas Frank is juggling a few injuries with Radu Dragusin and Dejan Kulusevski still out, while James Maddison and Dominic Solanke are considered doubts. After recording draws with both Wycombe and Luton Town in a double-header day of friendlies last weekend, Spurs are in need of a positive result. With just two more friendlies remaining before they face Paris Saint-Germain in the UEFA Super Cup, time is running out to get on song.

Crystal Palace's Premier League fixtures: Full 2025-26 schedule and key dates
Crystal Palace begin the 2025-26 campaign with an away trip to London rivals Chelsea. The FA Cup winners play rivals Brighton & Hove Albion at Selhurst Park on November 8 and at the Amex on February 7. Palace play Tottenham Hotspur on December 27 and conclude the season at home to Arsenal. All times in BST/GMT By Matt Woosnam Crystal Palace will bookend their Premier League season with London derbies. The opening weekend sees them travel to Chelsea. They make a short trip to west London for a second successive campaign after last year's 2-1 defeat by Brentford in their opening fixture. After eight games without a win to start the previous campaign, manager Oliver Glasner will hope for a better start despite the success of a highest-ever Premier League points total and winning the FA Cup. They face newly-promoted Sunderland at home in their fourth game, but do appear to have a relatively difficult run of fixtures to start with. Advertisement Their festive schedule includes trips to Burnley at the start of December, Leeds on December 20 and Newcastle as the first game of the new year but is otherwise not too taxing. The fixture which everyone's eyes will turn to is those against arch rivals Brighton & Hove Albion. Those two games are currently scheduled to take place on November 8 at Selhurst Park and February 7 at Brighton's AMEX Stadium. Palace will host Tottenham Hotspur in their first post-Christmas game, on December 27. They close out the season with a home fixture against Arsenal. The exceptional pre-Club World Cup transfer window opened on June 1 and closed nine days later on June 10. The summer window re-opened on June 16, while the cut-off date for the 2024-25 profitability and sustainability rules (PSR) reporting period coming at the end of the month on June 30. The window closes on Monday, September 1, at 11pm BST (6pm ET). The winter transfer window opens on Thursday, January 1, and closes on Monday, February 2. The new Premier League season gets underway on the weekend of August 15-17, a week after the Community Shield on August 8, when league champions Liverpool face FA Cup winners Crystal Palace. The final match round will be played on Sunday, May 24, 2026, when all 10 matches will kick off simultaneously as usual. Premier League clubs will enter the FA Cup at the third round, which begins on Saturday, January 10. The Carabao Cup will begin in mid-August, with Premier League teams not playing in Europe entering in the second round, which starts in the week commencing August 25, and the remaining seven clubs receiving a bye to the third round, which takes place in the weeks commencing September 15 and 22. Crystal Palace qualified for the Europa League after beating Manchester City to win the FA Cup, marking the club's first major trophy and first time they have qualified for Europe. However, uncertainty remains over Palace's participation in the competition due to UEFA's rules on multi-club ownership. John Textor's Eagle Football vehicle owns a 43 per cent stake in Palace and the majority stake in Ligue 1 side Lyon, who also qualified for the Europa League. Palace have presented their case to UEFA. The Europa League final will take place at the Besiktas Park in Istanbul.

West Ham news: Opinion - Fan writer on 'forgettable' London derby
Derbies are supposed to be unpredictable and fiery affairs, filled with passion, physicality and drama. But Sunday's game was never going to provide any of that. Here we had two teams limping towards the end of calamitous league campaigns with nothing left to play for domestically. Meanwhile, Tottenham Hotspur had the small matter of a Europa League semi-final second leg to plan for. It was never going to be a classic. The build-up was unlike any before to a meeting between these two teams. In fact, there was barely any build-up whatsoever. That set the tone for what was largely a drab affair. The atmosphere in the first half was mildly befitting of the occasion though. West Ham fans were in full voice, at least for the first 15 minutes before Tottenham took the lead against the run of play. "1-0 in your cup final," sang the Spurs fans. Well, at least we tend to win our cup finals. Jarrod Bowen's equaliser was well deserved, well taken and from there, the game had 1-1 written all over it. A few verses of "stand up if you hate Tottenham" followed, with Tottenham fans also standing up, presumably in agreement with the home support after their equally torrid Premier League season. It was a rare show of solidarity between two sets of fans who do not normally agree about anything. But then that was that. The game fizzled out. West Ham should have punished a heavily rotated and under-strength Spurs, but did not. Tottenham should have punished a West Ham team which has struggled so desperately to see games out in recent weeks, but didn't. James Ward-Prowse almost won it at the death but his free-kick hit the post, which provided probably the most exciting thing to happen in the second half. Beyond that, there was literally nothing to write home about. As London derbies go, this one was entirely forgettable. Given the circumstances, it lived up to everyone's expectations. We are now one week closer to the end of the season, when we can all try to forget this season ever happened. It cannot come quickly enough for me.
