Tottenham vs Arsenal LIVE
Premier League 2018-19
Venue: Wembley Stadium
Kick-off: 12:30 GMT
After seeing any lingering title hopes surely extinguished by successive defeats, third-place Tottenham have no time to lick their wounds as they host Arsenal in the latest instalment of the north London derby at Wembley this afternoon.
Following a shock result at Burnley, Spurs were totally insipid against another capital rival in Chelsea on Wednesday night, failing to register a shot on target for the first time under Mauricio Pochettino as they slumped to a 2-0 loss at Stamford Bridge.
Tottenham may now be casting nervous glances downwards with 10 matches remaining as they look to avoid being permanently dragged into the busy race for a top-four finish, with resurgent Manchester United only five points behind in fifth and fourth-place Arsenal just four points adrift.
The Gunners maintained their slender advantage over United by thrashing travel-sick Bournemouth 5-1 at the Emirates Stadium and will look to complete a satisfying double over their fiercest rivals.

Score prediction: Tottenham 2-2 Arsenal
Tottenham, who travel to Dortmund in the Champions League on Tuesday, need to produce a positive result after such a tumultuous few days.
However, Arsenal will be only too aware that both United and Chelsea are in action against relegation contenders this weekend and that a slip-up at Wembley is likely to result in them losing their grip on fourth spot.
It is easy to foresee an entertaining draw with a few goals to boot.
TV channel and live stream, and online coverage
