Martin Ho’s side head into the derby looking for a response. Spurs started the season strongly and earned Ho the WSL Manager of the Month award for September, but two disappointing results this month have slowed them down. They still sit fourth, five points off the Champions League places. Kick-off is at 12:45 pm UK time.

The match is live in the UK on BBC One, BBC iPlayer and the BBC Sport website. Supporters wanting to be at the stadium can still buy tickets online, or on the day from the Paxton House ticket office, subject to availability. The Match Centre on the club website and the Spurs Official app will carry live text and audio commentary. Highlights land on club channels four hours after full time.

There’s some welcome news on the injury front. Forward Jess Naz is in contention to return after missing time with an ACL injury since December 2025, while midfielder Olga Ahtinen misses out with a small knock. Arsenal also miss Michelle Agyemang and Katie Reid, both still recovering from long-term ACL injuries, and will also be without Selia Cerci and Mariona Caldentey.

Pre-Match, Officials And Kit Details At Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

Before kick-off, a group of former Spurs players from different eras will receive their legacy certificates, following the introduction of legacy numbers last month. They’ll walk along the sideline to wave to supporters.

Pheobe Cross is the referee. Jon Ashworth-Sears and Matthew Joyce will assist her, with Lisa Benn as fourth official.

Spurs will wear their 2026-2027 home kit: Lilywhite shirts, navy shorts, and white socks, with their goalkeeper in green. Arsenal are in their home colours of red shirts, white shorts and red socks, and their goalkeeper wears purple.

The matchday programme is on sale around the stadium for £3.50, or can be ordered online. This issue features captain Drew Spence as the main interview, a “get to know” chat with defender Ella Morris, and conversations with several former players.

Expect a dry morning in north London, with rain showers likely during the game and temperatures around 12 degrees. After a rough few weeks, a derby win in front of the home crowd would lift everyone at the club.
