The first part of Super Sunday matches the two unbeaten sides in the Premier League as Mauricio Pochettino's Tottenham take on Pep Guardiola's Manchester City in the biggest game of the weekend at White Hart Lane.
The result may well be decided by the performances of leading scorers Heung-min Son and Sergio Aguero.
Son has seized the opportunity handed to him this season by Pochettino after the Tottenham manager turned down his request to leave the club in the summer.
The South Korea forward has already equalled his Premier League goals tally from last season, scoring twice in both away wins at Stoke and Middlesbrough.
Going back to the end of last season, Son has scored six goals and made one assist in his past six Premier League appearances.
Despite appearing in only half of Spurs' league games this season, the 24-year-old has scored the most goals, made the most dribbles and had the most touches in the opposition box for his club this season.
With City expecting to dominate possession, Tottenham's ability to counter-attack will be aided by Son's running with the ball. He made 16 dribbles in the win at Middlesbrough last weekend, which was the most in a single game this season.
Son also averages 11.3 dribbles per game, which is more than any other player in Europe's top five leagues this campaign going into this weekend.
Only a three-match domestic suspension has halted Aguero's impressive start to the season. The striker has scored five goals in four Premier League appearances this season, including a brace at Swansea last weekend.
His scintillating form has continued in Europe, with the 28-year-old Argentine scoring hat-tricks against both Steaua Bucharest and Borussia Monchengladbach.
Aguero will be looking forward to facing Spurs again at the weekend, with only Newcastle suffering more at his hands in the Premier League. In his nine Premier League appearances against Pochettino's side, he has scored 10 goals, including all four in City's 4-1 win at the Etihad in October 2014.
Hugo Lloris will be hoping for a better day against his nemesis on Sunday. Eight of Aguero's goals against Tottenham have been past Lloris, the most the Spurs captain has conceded against a single player in his Premier League career.
Aguero invariably enjoys his visits to London, and not just to face Spurs. Overall, he has scored 17 goals in 24 Premier League appearances in the capital, including a hat-trick on his last visit in City's 3-0 win at Chelsea in April.
If Son can continue his fine early season form, Tottenham will have a greater chance to end City's perfect start to the campaign.
City's chances of making it seven wins out of seven in the Premier League this season, meanwhile, will rest heavily on whether Aguero can extend his so far excellent goalscoring record against Spurs.
