Arsenal have been directed to wear their away kit when they face Tottenham in the Premier League on Sunday.
The Premier League and PGMOL have told the Gunners they cannot wear their traditional red home kit, because there is too much white on the back of the shirt and that will clash with Tottenham.
This means Mikel Arteta’s men will wear their new black kit for the North London Derby.
It will be the first time in recent seasons either team has had to change colours.
Spurs will also have to wear their away kit in the reverse fixture at the Emirates.
Last season, the first North London derby of the season was played at the Emirates, with Tottenham coming twice from behind to claim a 2-2 draw.
In the reverse fixture, the Gunners went three goals up at half time, before eventually running out 3-2 winners.
