Jermain Defoe is confident Spurs can claim their first league double over Arsenal since the 1992/93 season when the rivals clash on Sunday.
Tottenham are looking to cement a Champions League finish this campaign while it is not a season Gunners fans will want to remember for long.
Harry Redknapp’s men currently lead their near-neighbours in the Premier League, and Defoe is confident the Lilywhites can extend the margin this weekend.
“It’s going to be a difficult game but I’m confident, obviously, with the way we’re playing,” the striker told LBC 97.3.
“We’ve got a really strong squad now and everyone’s playing well
“Everyone’s firing and team spirit is fantastic which I think is always important if you want to try to achieve something.
“We’ve got a great chance to go there and get three points.”
