LIVE UPDATES: Arsenal vs Tottenham

Arsenal and Tottenham face off in the North London Derby this afternoon Arsenal and Tottenham face off in the North London Derby this afternoon

Hello and good evening. Welcome to Ghanaweb.com’s coverage of the north London derby between Arsenal and Tottenham.

A super Sunday awaits as the Gunners host Spurs at the Emirates, with Unai Emery and Mauricio Pochettino both in need of a result today.

Arsenal lost their 100 per cent Premier League record last weekend as they were well beaten by Liverpool at Anfield, while Tottenham slipped to a shock home defeat to Newcastle United.

While the alarm bells are not necessarily ringing just yet, a defeat for either club would leave them well off the pace in the title race after just four games.

We will keep you up to date with all the latest team news and build-up to today's huge clash in north London.
