Arsenal can go six points clear at the top of the Premier League if they beat Spurs.

Kick off is at 4:30pm.
Meanwhile, it is full time at Elland Road where Aston Villa won 2-1 over Leeds United.
Morgan Rogers has scored twice as Villa came from 1-0 down.

Sami Valimaki is the man to catch on 19 under.
F1
Red Bull's Max Verstappen won the Las Vegas Grand Prix and watched his title rivals get disqualified.
Driver's standings leader Lando Norris finished the race in second with his teammate Oscar Piastri in fourth.
However, post-race checks found both McLaren drivers to be in breach of rules surrounding skid-block wear.
McLaren has apologised after saying the ruling is 'extremely disappointing', with the breach unintentional.
It means Norris leads Piastri and now Verstappen by 24 points ahead of the final events in Qatar this coming week and the season finale in Abu Dhabi
Norris must outscore both his rivals by at least two points in Doha across the sprint and grand prix in order to grab an unassailable 26 points.
