Tottenham vs Arsenal LIVE! Premier League result, match stream and latest updates today

Gabriel's second-half header earned Arsenal a crucial 1-0 win at Tottenham Hotspur in a feisty north London derby on Sunday to keep pace with early Premier League leaders Manchester City.

Spurs started sharper, and David Raya was forced into early saves before Arsenal fought their way into the contest, although Jurrien Timber was perhaps fortunate to avoid a straight red card for a reckless challenge on Pedro Porro in the first half.

The game was breathless but low on quality in front of goal until Arsenal punished Spurs from a corner, Gabriel escaping from Cristian Romero and powering a header past Guglielmo Vicario from close range in the 64th minute.

Arsenal then withstood some late pressure from Spurs to secure the win, which puts them on 10 points, two behind champions City ahead of their trip to the Etihad next Sunday, while Spurs have four points from four games in a disappointing start.

Postecoglou dismisses set-piece claims: 'We work on them all the time'

17:33 , Jonathan Gorrie

Ange Postecoglou says improving Tottenham's defending at set pieces is "my burden to carry" after Gabriel Magalhaes scored from a corner to settle Sunday's north London derby.

The Brazilian eased Cristian Romero aside to head home Bukayo Saka's inswinging corner in the 64th minute and give Arsenal a third consecutive win at the home of their rivals for the first time since the 1980s.

Arteta provides Saka injury update after Arsenal scare against Tottenham

17:32 , Jonathan Gorrie

Mikel Arteta said Bukayo Saka was unable to finish Sunday's north London derby, raising doubts about the winger's fitness ahead of a huge week.

The England winger was replaced by Ethan Nwaneri four minutes from time as Arsenal beat Tottenham 1-0 in an entertaining but scrappy north London derby, settled by Gabriel Magalhaes.

Arsenal begin their campaign in the revamped Champions League against Europa League winners Atalanta on Thursday before visiting title rivals Manchester City on Sunday.

Asked for an update on Saka, Arteta said: "I don’t know. I made two changes with the front players and suddenly he’s down. I looked at the bench and the options that we had and we had to adapt. I don’t know exactly what it is but he could not continue."

Ange Postecoglou may already be rethinking his aims for the season

16:46 , Jonathan Gorrie

Tottenham went down to a deeply frustrating 1-0 defeat to rivals Arsenal in an entertaining but bitty north London derby.

Gabriel Magalhaes headed home the winning goal in the 64th minute after Cristian Romero switched off from a corner, to leave Ange Postecoglou’s side with just four points from as many games.

Here are the key Tottenham talking points…

Gritty Gabriel proves Arsenal are up for the title fight

16:34 , Jonathan Gorrie

If Arsenal were to leave Tottenham with all three points, it always felt like it would take this kind of performance.

This was a win based on Arsenal’s resilience and grit, as they showcased the defensive quality that made them title contenders last season.

On this evidence, the Gunners are ready to compete with Manchester City again and they are more than up for the fight.

Fittingly, it was Gabriel who scored the only goal of the game. It was a thumping header too, with the Brazilian losing his marker in the box to power Bukayo Saka’s corner home.

Tottenham player ratings vs Arsenal: Cristian Romero lets himself down for derby winner

16:16 , Jonathan Gorrie

Tottenham slumped to a frustrating 1-0 defeat to Arsenal in the north London derby, decided by Gabriel’s second-half goal.

Ange Postecoglou’s side shaded a bitty first half, with Dejan Kulusevski twice testing David Raya, but struggled to carve out chances after the break.

Their weakness at set-pieces again proved costly, as Gabriel headed home Bukayo Saka’s corner to give Arsenal a third consecutive win at the home of the neighbours.

Arsenal ratings: Gabriel the hero as Timber has best Gunners game yet

16:15 , Jonathan Gorrie

Gabriel scored the only goal of the game as Arsenal earned a priceless win at their rivals Tottenham.

Despite being without a string of first-team players, including captain Martin Odegaard and Declan Rice, the Gunners battled to a 1-0 win.

Gabriel was the hero, powering home a header midway through the second-half after rising to meet Bukayo Saka’s corner.

The win means Arsenal move up to second in the Premier League and are just two points off Manchester City ahead of their trip to the Etihad next week.

Gabriel Magalhaes scored the only goal of the game as Arsenal beat Tottenham in the Premier League’s first north London derby of the season.

After both team had wasted chances in the first-half, Gabriel nodded in from a corner as set-piece issues continued to undermine Spurs.

FT: Tottenham 0-1 Arsenal

15:57 , Jonathan Gorrie

It’s over! The Gunners claim a huge three points.

Add Saka to Arsenal's walking wound. He's limping his way round to the bench with the physio - getting a 'lovely' reception from Spurs fans as he does.

Tottenham 0-1 Arsenal

15:47 , Jonathan Gorrie

85 mins: Saka down getting treatment and it’d be fair to say home fans aren’t too pleased.

Nwaneri replaces the England star.

82 mins: Sarr tries his luck from range but a wild shot goes wide.

Spurs appear to be lacking some conviction.

78 mins: Sterling get ready for his Arsenal debut, while Werner warms-up for Tottenham.

71 mins: Worth noting, however, that Arsenal do not have many experienced options off the bench,

Spurs are still in this.

15:27 , Jonathan Gorrie

Spurs might point to a push from Gabriel on Romero but that felt far too easy for Arsenal. Spurs' set-piece problem returns on the worst possible occasion for Postecoglou's side.

Interesting to see what both managers do with their benches. Not much there for Arteta, but the prospect of Sterling getting 20 minutes or so is exciting.

51 mins: Second-half really yet to get going, which probably suits Arsenal more at this stage.

14:52 , Jonathan Gorrie

0-0. A bitty but entertaining first half, in which both sides struggled for consistent control and clear-cut chances. Vicario's smart save from Havertz was the closest either came, but Raya was twice been called into action to turn away Kulusevski shots. Referee Jarred Gillett is a little card-happy, so don't rule out a second-half sending off.

HT: Tottenham 0-0 Arsenal

Both teams waste chances as tempers flare....

Dan Kilpatrick at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

14:48 , Jonathan Gorrie

Spurs have lost a bit of control in the last ten minutes, amid a succession of stoppages, and it's Arsenal looking the more threatening as half-time approaches. It's a compelling game, if a little stop-start.

Tottenham 0-0 Arsenal

14:39 , Jonathan Gorrie

37 mins: Vicario booked for his arguments with Timber after the foul.

Simon Collings at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

There's been a flurry of cards in the past 15 minutes, get the feeling someone could be getting a red today. All threatening to boil over.

Tottenham 0-0 Arsenal

14:37 , Jonathan Gorrie

35 mins: It’s all kicking off here!

Timber with a foul on Porro and it sparks a clash between the two sets of players.

Home fans want the Dutchman sent off but VAR will not be taking it up to a red.

Dan Kilpatrick at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

14:35 , Jonathan Gorrie

Spurs have been successful at pressing Arsenal's back four into mistakes but on both occasions they have won the ball high up, they've dithered and allowed the visitors to regroup. Udogie's booking for a late tackle on Saka leaves him with a tough hour ahead against the England winger, although to be fair he was in a similar position at the Emirates last season and barely put a foot wrong.

Tottenham 0-0 Arsenal

14:29 , Jonathan Gorrie

27 mins: Maddison digs out a cross to Solanke at the back post and the striker, under pressure from Gabriel, manages to connect.

His looping header is collected by Raya, who loos fairly relieved.

Dan Kilpatrick at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

14:23 , Jonathan Gorrie

Spurs are still seeing more of the ball but Martinelli is starting to give Porro a hard time down Arsenal's left. The Brazilian has twice got beyond the full-back, forcing Vicario into saves. More encouragingly for Spurs, Son's looking sharp against White on the other flank.

Tottenham 0-0 Arsenal

14:23 , Jonathan Gorrie

21 mins: The ball is briefly over the line after Solanke knocks into Raya, forcing him to spill a catch.

The goalkeeper, however, wins the foul.

Tottenham 0-0 Arsenal

14:20 , Jonathan Gorrie

18 mins: Martinelli through on goal but Vicario saves! Should probably have done better, albeit Porro was covering.

Tottenham 0-0 Arsenal

14:19 , Jonathan Gorrie

17 mins: Big save for Spurs!

Martinelli skins Porro and gets a cross in, with Havertz heading down into the corner but Vicario meets it.

The ball hits Romero on the arm after and the Gunners want a penalty but nothing given.

Simon Collings at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

14:17 , Jonathan Gorrie

Arteta with a laugh there as Saliba is booked for, what PGMOL would describe as, "delaying the restart of the game". Arsenal know all about that from Rice two weeks ago.

Tottenham 0-0 Arsenal

14:16 , Jonathan Gorrie

15 mins: Saliba booked for - you guessed it - delaying the restart...

Tottenham 0-0 Arsenal

14 mins: A HUGE let off for Ben White!

His poor pass across the box finds only Solanke but the striker takes too many touches and Arsenal clear lines!

Dan Kilpatrick at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

14:10 , Jonathan Gorrie

Spurs have made a bright start, playing some slick football in the final third. Kulusevski in particular looks in the mood and has already had three efforts on goal. Spurs, though, have made a habit of starting well but failing to capitalise on their dominance...

Tottenham 0-0 Arsenal

14:09 , Jonathan Gorrie

07 mins: Another big save from Raya, who denies Johnson!

The forward tried to flick on Kulusevski’s whipped ball but the Arsenal stopper meets it.

Tottenham 0-0 Arsenal

14:06 , Jonathan Gorrie

04 mins; BIG CHANCE!

Son cuts back for Kulusevski but Raya parries it away!

Looks like Arsenal are basically playing 4-4-2 out of possession, with both Partey and Jorginho in front of the defence.

Tottenham 0-0 Arsenal

14:05 , Jonathan Gorrie

02 mins: Spurs settling on the ball here. Given the absences in Arsenal ranks, that always left likely.

Tottenham 0-0 Arsenal

01 mins: Spurs deal with an early corner, which may settle some nerves given what happened last year!

KICK-OFF!

14:01 , Jonathan Gorrie

Away we go!

Dan Kilpatrick at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

13:48 , Jonathan Gorrie

Not exactly going out on a limb here but I suspect this will be a brilliant game for the neutral, as always. Without Sarr and Bissouma, Spurs XI is even more attack-minded than usual, while Rice (and Merino) feel like big misses for Arsenal off the ball. Strap in!

13:47 , Jonathan Gorrie

An absolutely huge game and Spurs have gone for it from the off.

Can they punish a weakened Arsenal squad?

“I am really happy where I am and I am really privileged to be in this position. I just want to be here.

"To win today. That is the only target. It has to be about performance and what we do daily and the outcome will be whatever it is in May.

"We know the standards and we know the level and we have to match it or be better.

"You need to stand up and individually have to have big performances and then collectively that will be the difference."

That Arsenal bench is alarming short. Seven teenagers on it and a real lack of depth in midfield - Lewis-Skelly and Nwaneri the only genuine options, there.

Big boost for Tottenham

12:58 , Jonathan Gorrie

On the flip side, having Van de Ven and Solanke available is a major boost for Spurs.

Big blow for Arsenal

No Odegaard of Calafiori today for the Gunners, who are forced to name a fairly youthful bench.

Derby momentum builds for Tottenham as Arsenal target landmark result of Mikel Arteta era

12:25 , Jonathan Gorrie

Before a ball has even been kicked, the momentum going into Sunday’s north London derby feels firmly in Tottenham’s favour.

Mikel Arteta may have given Arsenal a boost on Thursday morning by agreeing terms on a new contract, but on the pitch the Gunners have plenty of problems as they look to make it three wins in a row at the home of their fierce rivals.

Mikel Arteta not afraid to hand Ethan Nwaneri first Arsenal start at Tottenham

11:44 , Jonathan Gorrie

Mikel Arteta would not fear handing Ethan Nwaneri his first start for Arsenal in Sunday’s north London derby.

Arsenal are facing a midfield crisis ahead of their trip to Tottenham this weekend, with Martin Odegaard and Mikel Merino out due to injury.

Declan Rice is also suspended, which is forcing Arteta into a rethink and Nwaneri is one of the possible solutions.

The 17-year-old has been tipped for big things at Arsenal, but he is yet to start a senior game for them.

Ange Postecoglou has warned his Tottenham players that Arsenal will “punish” them if they take their foot off the gas because of the Gunners’ weakened line-up for the North London Derby.

Mikel Arteta’s side will be without Declan Rice and new signing Mikel Merino at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday. Rice is serving a suspension for his controversial red card against Brighton, while Merino suffered a freak injury in Arsenal training.

Arsenal also have concerns of their own, with Declan Rice suspended. Martin Odegaard picked up a knock while away on international duty, although Arteta has hinted the Gunners captain could be involved for the derby.

Gabriel Jesus is expected to be back fit. The Brazilian missed the past two Arsenal games due to a groin injury.

But Jesus is back in training and hoping to be in the squad for Sunday’s trip to Spurs.

“Gabi was out there [training],” Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta said on Friday afternoon.

Tottenham are set to have Micky van de Ven and Dominic Solanke fit after they missed the defeat at Newcastle before the international break. A late call will be made on Yves Bissouma after he sustained an issue while away with Mali on national team duty.

"Micky's good, he's trained all the way through the international break so he's ready to go," Ange Postecoglou said. "Dom's improved as well and trained the back half of this week. We still have two days to go with those guys so hopefully they get through training OK and are available."

On Bissouma, Postecoglou revealed: "He's got a bit of an issue, but we'll have a look at him over the next couple of days and see how it settles."
