Tottenham confirmed team vs Arsenal: Matt Doherty, Lucas Moura and Gareth Bale start in derby

Jose Mourinho has kept faith with his last Premier League line-up as Tottenham take on Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday afternoon.

Spurs have a poor record when travelling down the road to face the Gunners at the Emirates, with just one win in the Premier League coming in 2010.

Mourinho has everyone available to him apart from Giovani Lo Celso who has a back problem and the Argentine has not made the squad for the north London derby.

The Spurs boss has chosen the same team that overcame Crystal Palace 4-1, with Serge Aurier, now back from his calf problems, on the bench with Matt Doherty, who has been improving his form in recent weeks, starting.

Gareth Bale is once again in the starting line-up, with Lucas Moura, Sergio Reguilon and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg all coming back in as well after the midweek Europa League victory against Dinamo Zagreb.

Bale was in the last Spurs team to win at the Emirates in the Premier League, scoring the first goal as Tottenham came back from 2-0 down to win 3-2 more than 10 years ago.

Here is the team Mourinho has chosen to take on the Gunners:

Lloris; Doherty, Sanchez, Alderweireld, Reguilon; Hojbjerg, Ndombele; Bale, Lucas, Son; Kane.

Subs: Hart, Davies, Aurier, Dier, Winks, Sissoko, Lamela, Alli, Vinicius.
