Arsenal have scored more goals against Tottenham than any club during Arsene Wenger's reign as manager.

Of the 2,003 goals netted in the Frenchman's 19-year spell in charge, 88 of those have come against their north London rivals - a stat which will be music to the ears of Arsenal fans ahead of the highly anticipated derby on Super Sunday.

Arsenal have won six of the last nine meetings between the teams, including two 5-2 hammerings in 2012. The game at the Emirates that year was especially memorable as Spurs raced into a 2-0 lead before the Gunners scored five goals in a 28-minute spell either side of half-time to turn the game on its head.

Next on the list of teams Wenger's Arsenal have scored the most goals against are Everton (87), followed by Newcastle (80), Blackburn (75) and Aston Villa (74).
