22:57 CET - A win of seismic proportions for Arsenal! The Gunners have claimed the bragging rights in the North London derby with a 2-1 win over Tottenham - a victory which sees them move four points behind Liverpool!
Arsenal played really well and should have won by more against an extremely shaky Spurs defence, but as they have displayed in recent games, they struggled to put the ball in the net, with the likes of Kai Havertz, Raheem Sterling and Martin Odegaard missing guilt-edge chances.
But three points is all that matters, and Arsenal have the win!
22:44 CET - Inter Milan have slipped up in the Serie A title race, dropping two points after a 2-2 draw at home to Bologna. As a result, they are now three points behind league-leaders Napoli, but still have a game in hand.

21:53 CET - A delightful dinked pass from Bruno Guimaraes is finished off with expert composure from Isak who scores his second of the game! Isak is the best striker in the Premier League right now. The world? Maybe.

21:46 CET - A frantic and fantastic end to the first half from an Arsenal perspective sees them come from behind to take a stunning lead in the NLD! A quick break finds its way to Leandro Trossard who makes no mistake, firing past Antonin Kinsky who could only get a hand to it. Should he have done better? Probably!
It is the home side who go into the break ahead in a NLD that is not disappointing.
21:43 CET - A classic Aston Villa goal under Unai Emery as a fast counter is punished emphatically! Ollie Watkins is played through after a perfectly weighted pass from Morgan Rogers - Villa take the lead.
21:40 CET - Of course it would be a set piece that would get Arsenal out of trouble! A dangerous corner is put into his own net by Dominic Solanke after pressure was applied from Gabriel. 1-1 and it is game on.
21:36 CET - Inter have turned this game on its head as on the brink of half-time, the home side take the lead through their captain and talisman Lautaro Martinez. That was the last action of note in the first period as the half-time whistle goes.

Tottenham's captain and ever-threat Son Heung-Min scores after a corner falls to him on the edge of his box and his volley takes a deflection on its way in, taking the ball away from David Raya and into the far corner.
Advantage Tottenham!
21:20 CET - The half-time whistle has gone in the three early Premier League kick-offs and just the one goal so far from Alexander Isak who continues his scoring streak.
Leicester City 0-0 Crystal Palace
21:14 CET - Inter Milan are level to the relief of their fans and it is their goal-scoring wing-back Denzel Dumfries who levels for the hosts.
Dumfries was in the right place at the right time to tap in from point-blank range after fellow wing-back Federico Dimarco's shot was parried away.
21:06 CET - Over to the Premier League and Alexander Isak has scored again for Newcastle although not without fortune as his strike from range takes a huge deflection on its way, which wrong-foots Jose Sa.

20:30 CET - Three Premier League games are underway as Bayern Munich kick-off in the Bundesliga!
20:15 CET - And last but by no means least, the teams are in for the NLD tonight and it should be a classic! Mikel Arteta starts both Leandro Trossard and Raheem Sterling in a team that looks to be lacking a cutting-edge in attack. Ange Postecoglou meanwhile is forced into selecting a makeshift backline with first-choice options still unavailable.
It might not be two sides at the top of their game but it should be entertaining!
Follow Arsenal vs Tottenham here.
20:03 CET - After a dramatic night of Serie A action last night, Inter have a chance to make Atalanta pay for dropping points with a win at home to Bologna. A win would also close the gap on leaders Napoli in the first of two games in hand.
