Never before has the Premier League been so saturated with clubs from the English capital as it has in the past couple of years.

While the likes of Queens Park Rangers and Charlton Athletic have long faded from top-flight relevancy, Brentford's rise and Fulham's improvement under Marco Silva has seen London's aristocracy complemented by a pair of overachievers in the west of the capital.

The presence of seven London clubs in the top-flight in 2023/24 means derbies have rolled around at a relentless rate this season. Arsenal went unbeaten against their London rivals last season and became the first side ever to win ten capital derbies in a single campaign, though they have been met with more resistance this term.

Here's how all the London clubs fared against each other in 2023/24.

West London dominated the standings for much of the campaign but Brentford and Chelsea have been usurped by title hopefuls Arsenal during the final few weeks of the season.

The Gunners have been in a rampant mood in 2024 and Premier League victories over Crystal Palace, West Ham and Brentford this calendar year have thrust them to the top of the table. Games later in the campaign against Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur also resulted in huge wins for Mikel Arteta.

Thomas Frank's Bees started strong against their capital rivals but their recent slump has seen them drop down the table. Brentford picked up impressive victories at Chelsea and Fulham earlier this term but they've since sunk to sixth in the London derby table.

It's Chelsea who have enjoyed more success in the capital than any other side bar Arsenal. Mauricio Pochettino's Blues did the double over Tottenham and managed to win seven of their 12 derbies in total, though they failed to beat Brentford in either fixture.

Fulham secured huge home wins over Arsenal and Tottenham but struggled mightily away from home. Still, their 16-point haul from 12 derbies is impressive.

Ange Postecoglou's Spurs endured an up-and-down campaign against their capital rivals before late defeats soured their record even further. They won only a third of their local derbies, being thumped at Craven Cottage before the March international break and then losing to Arsenal and Chelsea in back-to-back outings.

They're just ahead of West Ham in the table. The Irons' final capital clash of the campaign ended in a 5-0 defeat at Stamford Bridge, but they did win away at both Arsenal and Tottenham.

Crystal Palace are down at the bottom of the standings after picking up only ten points against their rivals. There were no major upsets for Roy Hodgson or successor Oliver Glasner, with their two victories coming at home against Brentford and West Ham.
