Tottenham vs. Arsenal live score: Premier League result, updates, stats from north London derby showdown
JUMP TO:
Arsenal travel to Tottenham for a derby showdown on Sunday, with Manchester City breathing down their necks in the Premier League title race.
Wednesday’s collapse from 2-0 up to draw 2-2 at bottom club Wolves saw the Gunners leave the door slightly open to City, who battled to a 2-1 win over Newcastle United on Saturday.
It means the gap at the summit is down to two points as both clubs have 11 games remaining.
That pressure equation is a factor to make this north London derby truly intriguing because, on current form, Spurs should not represent too much of a problem. Igor Tudor takes charge for the first time since Thomas Frank’s sacking. An against-the-odds victory would be only Tottenham’s third of the year in the Premier League and first since December.

Tottenham vs. Arsenal lineups, team news
Cristian Romero is serving the second of his four-match ban after receiving a red card against Manchester United a couple of weeks ago.
That complicates things for Tudor, who prefers a back three, so Radu Dragusin and Micky van de Ven could be joined by Archie Gray at centre-back.
Kevin Danso and Destiny Udogie are out, with Pedro Porro a major doubt.

Tottenham subs: Teams announced one hour, 15 mins before kickoff
Martin Odegaard was unavailable for Arsenal’s trip to Wolves but Arteta will be hopeful he is available today.
Teenage winger Max Dowman is also not too far away but it is unlikely he’d be involved in the matchday squad for this one with Mikel Merino and Kai Havertz confirmed absentees.
In attack, Arteta has decisions to make as to whether to stick with Gabriel Martinelli or play Noni Madueke on the left, while Gabriel Jesus and Viktor Gyokeres are fighting for the starting berth at centre-forward.
