Arsenal vs. Tottenham live score, updates, highlights & lineups from north London derby

A year and five days after Arsenal beat Spurs 3-1 at the Emirates Stadium, both teams are in a markedly different scenario as they prepare for the first north London derby of the 2022/23 season.

The neighbours had each lost three of their first six fixtures at that point. A game further on this time, Spurs remain unbeaten and the Gunners are top of the table, winning their sixth out of seven in style by beating Brentford 3-0 away on September 18.

Victory in the early kick-off on Matchday 8 would guarantee either side top spot, although a Spurs win would give reigning champions Manchester City the chance to overtake them with a win at home to Manchester United the following day.

The Sporting News is following the match live and providing live score updates and commentary.

Arsenal vs. Tottenham live updates, highlights from Premier League

90 mins from kickoff: The permutations, then: Tottenham will go top of the pile if they improve on their dismal record at Arsenal by winning.

Arsenal will move four points clear of Spurs and Manchester City with victory. A draw would send them two above City and one ahead of Tottenham, whose six-goal inferiority to the reigning champions means they would be equal on points but remain third.

115 mins from kickoff: The record of the away teams in this fixture is as terrible as the form of Harry Kane and Son Heung-min is brilliant.

One of the last 23 top-flight meetings has been won by the visitors, when Arsenal prevailed 1-0 at White Hart Lane in March 2014.

Arsenal must loathe Kane, who’s scored 13 times in 17 games against Arsenal. Son has four in his last five Premier League matches against these opponents.

120 mins from kickoff: Hello and welcome to our coverage of the first north London derby of the season. From the identity of the prime minister to the UK’s perception as a financial embarrassment across the world, much has changed since Arsenal last played at home. One constant will always remain, though: the animosity and intensity between Gunners fans and their arch-rivals, Tottenham.

Arsenal are top of the table. Spurs are unbeaten. Does something have to give, or would both sides be happy with a point that would allow Manchester City to go top when they host Manchester United on Sunday? We’ll find out in around two hours’ time.

Arsenal vs. Tottenham predicted lineups

As usual after an international break, both managers have fresh injury concerns. Defenders Kieran Tierney (concussion) and midfielder Thomas Partey (knee) are minor doubts after sustaining problems while playing for their countries but full-back Oleksandr Zinchenko and captain Martin Odegaard are expected to return.

Defender Cedric Soares is said to be out for at least a week with a knock picked up during a training session, while midfielders Mohamed Elneny and Reiss Nelson are both out with thigh problems.

Arsenal announced on Thursday that midfielder Emile Smith Rowe has had surgery on a groin issue and will not return until December.

Arsenal predicted lineup (4-2-3-1): Ramsdale (GK) — White, Saliba, Gabriel, Zinchenko — Vieira, Xhaka — Saka, Odegaard, Martinelli — Jesus

Attacker Lucas Moura missed Tottenham’s 6-2 win at home to Leicester with a calf injury and it is unclear whether the Brazilian will return this weekend.

Argentina defender Cristian Romero and Colombia centre-back Davinson Sanchez are unlikely to both be ready to play 90 minutes after each featuring for their countries in South America on Wednesday night.

Captain Hugo Lloris pulled out of international dutry with France because of a thigh injury and defender Ben Davies was absent for Wales with a hairline fracture of a bone under his knee. Both are still thought to be in contention to play.

Spurs manager Antonio Conte has a decision to make over forward Son Heung-min, who scored a 14-minute hat-trick after coming off the bench against Leicester.

Son’s record against Arsenal is only bettered by Harry Kane among current Spurs players and the South Korea talisman scored the only goal of the game for his country against Cameroon in Seoul on Tuesday.

He could replace Richarlison, who scored for Brazil against Tunisia at the Parc des Princes on the same night.

Tottenham predicted lineup (3-4-2-1): Lloris (GK) — Royal, Dier, Lenglet — Perisic, Hojbjerg, Bentancur, Sessegnon — Kulusevski, Son — Kane
