Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal are still the only teams in the 2023/24 Premier League season that are unbeaten after Matchday 7.
Spurs have had an outstanding start to the season, masterminded by the tactical brilliance of Ange Postecoglou.
Mikel Arteta has led his Gunners troops to a great start to the season, with their aims firmly fixated on winning the Premier League title.
Unbeaten teams in the 2023/24 Premier League season
Coincidentally both clubs are based in North London, and they shared the spoils in their first meeting in the league this term.
The departure of poacher Harry Kane has felt like a stepping stone to more success for Tottenham Hotspur.
Players like Heung-Min Son, James Maddison, and Richarlison have stepped up to be counted this season, providing noteworthy performances.
The Lilywhites acquired Brennan Johnson, James Maddison, Pedro Porro, Micky van de Ven, Dejan Kulusevski, Guglielmo Vicario, Alejo Véliz, Ashley Phillips, and Manor Solomon in the summer of 2023.
Not much was expected of the Tottenham Hotspur side, but given their sublime start to the season, many are already tipping the club to challenge for the league title.
Spurs have won 5 matches, drawn 2, and lost none in the Premier League this term, and they sit 2nd on the table.
Their absence from any European competition this season will also seemingly be an advantage for the side, and they might wrestle Manchester City off their crown.
Manchester City and Liverpool lose unbeaten status
Both Manchester City and Liverpool lost their unbeaten start to the season on Saturday, September 30, 2023, with City losing to Wolverhampton Wanderers 2-1, and the Reds losing to Tottenham Hotspur in identical fashion (2-1).
Meanwhile, Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal are smelling blood, having been nearly men last season, losing the title to the Cityzens at the dying embers of the campaign.
They spent the majority of the season at the summit of the table but unfortunately lost the league crown to a determined Manchester City.
Arsenal sit 3rd on the Premier League table with 17 points amassed from 7 matches, winning 5, drawing 2, and losing none.
The Gunners are heavily backed by the bookmakers as the team that can challenge Manchester City for the title.
They made needed signings in the summer, signing Declan Rice, Jurrien Timber, Kai Havertz, and David Raya on loan.
Two players have really stood out from their four signings, and they are; Declan Rice and David Raya.
Raya has apparently displaced Aaron Ramsdale to become the number-one shot-stopper at Arsenal, even though Mikel Arteta feels his decisions are all due to tactical reasons.
Declan Rice has also held his own in the midfield of the Gunners; controlling, dictating, and providing his quota to his team.
It would be interesting to see which team loses their unbeaten run first between Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal.
