ARSENAL are all set to face bitter North London rivals Tottenham in another thrilling Premier League encounter - but they will NOT be wearing red.
The Gunners did the double over Spurs last season, most recently beating them in a five-goal thriller after leading 3-0 at half-time.
And other than the result, another thing both games had in common was that Arsenal wore their traditional red kit for each win.
But for the first time in recent North London Derby history, this will not be the case.
Why are Arsenal not wearing their red kit?
The PGMOL and Premier League ruled that Arsenal's 2024/25 home kit features too much white which clashes with Tottenham's traditional colours.
Arsenal also discussed the option of wearing red shorts and red socks but it was rejected.
As a result, for the first time in recent ‘NLD’ history, the Gunners will be wearing their changed colours - a black Adidas away kit.
They'll be aiming to clinch a third-straight victory at the Tottenham Hotspur venue.
The decision by the PGMOL and Premier League will also mean Tottenham will wear different colours when they visit Emirates Stadium in January.
What happened in the last North London derby?
Arsenal picked up a huge win over Tottenham in the last North London Derby which at the time, helped them move four points clear at the top of the Premier League table.
The Gunners dominated a controversial first half that saw Spurs being denied Micky van de Ven's equaliser as well as two penalty appeals by James Maddison and Timo Werner.
However, Mikel Arteta's men still managed to lead 3-0 by half-time thanks to an own goal by Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg and goals by Bukayo Saka as well as Kai Havertz.
