Circle the Date: North London Derby Preview and the Fixtures That Will Define Our Season

As we navigate through the early stages of the 2025/26 campaign under Thomas Frank, Tottenham supporters are already looking ahead to the season's defining fixtures – none more significant than the North London Derby against our eternal rivals.

The Battle for North London Supremacy

The Premier League fixture list has thrown up some fascinating scheduling this season. While the first North London Derby awaits in the autumn, the return fixture at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium is set for February 21st, 2026 – a date every Spurs fan should already have circled in bold on their calendars.

This February clash comes at the culmination of what could be a season-defining run of fixtures. After facing Manchester City on January 31st, Spurs will battle Manchester United on February 7th and Newcastle on February 11th, before welcoming the Gunners to N17. How we navigate this gauntlet could well determine our position in the table heading into the final stretch.

London Calling: A Capital Challenge

The fixture computer hasn't been kind to Spurs with London derbies, either. Thomas Frank's men have already faced a stern test against Chelsea at the weekend, and further capital clashes against West Ham and Crystal Palace await in the coming months.

These London derbies carry extra significance beyond just local bragging rights – they often represent six-point swings in the race for European qualification.

The Final Countdown

As we look toward the season's conclusion, the penultimate fixture sees Spurs travel to Stamford Bridge on May 17th before closing out the campaign at home against Everton on May 24th. History tells us that final-day dramatics are almost a certainty in Tottenham's world.
