Antonio Conte turned the heat on Arsenal ahead of the North London derby, hailing them as the best team in the Premier League and clear favourites for the title.
The Tottenham boss went on to claim only Manchester City could catch them and warned Mikel Arteta there were tougher tests ahead created by pressure and expectation.
'When you are top of the league, the perception of your opponents change totally,' said Conte, who led from the front to win the title with Chelsea in 2017.
