Tottenham vs Arsenal: North London derby prediction, kick-off time, TV, live stream, team news, odds today | OneFootball

Arsenal take their bid to win the Premier League title to neighbours Tottenham today in a highly anticipated north London derby.

Spurs have had 15 days off since a 4-0 humbling at Newcastle, in which time Aston Villa have gone seven points clear in their battle for fourth place - and now Ange Postecoglou’s side must respond with three games in hand.

The Gunners meanwhile, looked to be heading out of the title race after losing at home to Aston Villa, but back-to-back wins over Wolves and a thrashing of Chelsea mean the pressure is back on Manchester City to show why they are the favourites for a fourth-straight title win.

Another Arsenal victory this afternoon would surely end Spurs’ hopes of qualifying for the Champions League next season. A win for Spurs could similarly end the Gunners’ season aims.

Tottenham are without left-back Destiny Udogie but will have Pedro Porro available. Ben Davies is set to replace Udogie.

Up front, Richarlison is fit again after three weeks out of action, and his involvement could push Heung-min Son to the wing where he should be joined by Brennan Johnson, Spurs’ most in-form forward.

Arsenal came through the thumping win over Chelsea unscathed, meaning Jurrien Timber is their only injury concern.

The centre-back made his comeback for the Under-21s in midweek, and scored, and Mikel Arteta has confirmed that he may return in the derby.

Spurs will solely miss Udogie, and a possible Porro absence is equally as damaging, against an Arsenal side brimming with confidence and gunning for the title.

Ange Postecoglou almost had the Gunners’ number in the reverse fixture, drawing 2-2 at the Emirates, but this is a completely different test in the season run-in and Spurs will need the likes of James Maddison to rediscover his form to have a chance of taking points off the league leaders.

Arsenal to win, 3-1.

Spurs have won just one of the last six derbies, losing four.

Tottenham wins: 67

Draw: 55
