Pedro Porro, Richarlison - Tottenham Hotspur injury news and return dates ahead of Arsenal clash

Sports Mole rounds up Tottenham Hotspur's injury and suspension news ahead of their Premier League clash with North London rivals Arsenal on Sunday.

Following a two-week break from Premier League action, Tottenham Hotspur lock horns with bitter rivals Arsenal on home soil for the latest instalment of the North London derby on Sunday afternoon.

Ange Postecoglou's side have not kicked a ball since they suffered a heavy 4-0 defeat away against Newcastle United on April 13, and they are now playing catch-up in the race to secure a top-four finish.

Tottenham currently sit fifth in the Premier League table and six points behind fourth-placed Aston Villa, but that gap can be reduced if Spurs win their two games in hand, starting with a derby showdown with league leaders Arsenal.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Tottenham's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the contest with Mikel Arteta's side, who thrashed Chelsea 5-0 on Tuesday.
