Tottenham vs Arsenal live scores, results, updates, stats, lineups from the Premier League North London derby

Arsenal make the short trip to face rivals Tottenham in a high-risk north London derby on Sunday.

Mikel Arteta's side are ahead in a three-way battle for the Premier League title after beating Chelsea 5-0 in midweek, although champions Manchester City still have a game in hand.

City face Nottingham Forest in the late kick-off on Sunday, giving the Gunners an opportunity to apply some pressure in a game they won 2-0 last season.

Since then, Ange Postecoglou has replaced Antonio Conte in the Spurs hot seat, ensuring his side play a swashbuckling style of football – one that was clearly on display when the teams played to a 2-2 draw at the Emirates Stadium last September.

Tottenham are aiming to secure UEFA Champions League qualification but need to bounce back from their 4-0 defeat in their last game at Newcastle.

The Sporting News follows the game between Tottenham and Arsenal live and provides current scores, comments and highlights.

Tottenham vs Arsenal live updates, highlights and commentary

58 minutes before kick-off: This is how the hosts position themselves. Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg strengthens the midfield that was torn apart in Newcastle two weeks ago. This is one of three changes Ange Postecoglou has made, with Dejan Kulusevski starting on the right side of attack and Ben Davies on the left, after it was announced that Destiny Udogie will miss the rest of the season due to thigh surgery.

1 hour before kick-off: The teams are there and Arsenal remains unchanged. Which is fair enough considering how they played last time.

1 hour 20 minutes before kick-off: Spurs have more to offer than dashing their arch-rivals' title ambitions, although Everton showed on Wednesday night that this can be a rare treat. Ange Postecoglou's men are in the hunt for a place in the UEFA Champions League and received a favor from elsewhere on Saturday. Chelsea bounced back from defeat to Arsenal and a 2-0 deficit to earn a 2-2 draw at Aston Villa, the team currently in fourth place. Spurs are seven points behind Unai Emery's side but have played three fewer games. To go back to that heavily loaded phrase at this time of year: It's in your hands. However, one of those games is today and another is at home against Manchester City in the final midweek of the season. How Spurs fare in their role as Premier League kingmakers will have a big impact on their Champions League fortunes.

1 hour 40 minutes before kick-off: For all the euphoria that followed Arsenal dismantling Chelsea 5-0 on Tuesday, only the most optimistic Gunners would have predicted they would remain ahead of Liverpool in what was then a three-man title race that Sunday lunchtime. Yet Jurgen Klopp's men have played twice since then and their tiring efforts at Everton and West Ham yielded a single point. Unless something absurd happens, this is now a fight to the finish between Arsenal and the formidable Manchester City side that broke their hearts last season. Mikel Arteta's side have proven they are made of tougher stuff this time around and can move four points clear of City with a win in the north London derby before Pep Guardiola's side face Nottingham Forest in the late kick-off on Sunday. However, this will be the first of two upcoming City games and the title race remains in the hands of the champions. It's up to Arsenal to do everything they can to make these hands a little nervous.

2 hours before kick-off: Hello and welcome to The Sporting News' live coverage of Tottenham v Arsenal in the North London derby. Spurs are aiming for Champions League qualification while their arch-rivals are still aiming for something much bigger.
