Good evening and welcome to The Independent’s live coverage of tonight’s north London derby in the Premier League. Tottenham travel across the capital to face Arsenal at the Emirates, with plenty more than three points on the line as the Gunners chase Liverpool and Spurs try and salvage their league campaign.

Arsenal are back in action at The Emirates on Wednesday for the North London Derby, after suffering a bitter defeat to Manchester United in the FA cup.

Tottenham Hotspur kick off the new year with a visit from Newcastle United as they look to rediscover some Premier League form. The Lilywhites welcome the high-flying Magpies to north London on a three-game winless run and the increasing pressure on Ange Postecoglou could ramp up further if they again fail to pick up three points.
