Hello and good afternoon.

Welcome to our live text coverage of the 164th league meeting of north London rivals Tottenham and Arsenal.

After seeing their title hopes fade with defeats at Burnley and Chelsea, Spurs are looking to underline their top-four credentials by returning to winning ways against their fierce rivals.

Arsenal, meanwhile, are looking to complete their first league double over Spurs in five years that would move the Gunners to within a point of the hosts.

The Gunners come into this game on the back of a couple of convincing home wins over Southampton and Bournemouth, but they are always pretty strong at Emirates Stadium anyway.

Back-to-back defeats by Burnley and Chelsea has left Mauricio Pochettino's side nine points off the pace with 10 games remaining.

Arsenal need a win to boost their top-four hopes, with Manchester United and Chelsea hot on their heels.

There is a lot at stake at Wembley today.

Stay tuned for all the action from Wembley where we get underway at 12.30pm.
