Tottenham face bitter rivals Arsenal tonight in a North London derby of huge significance for both teams. Arsenal are in danger of going six years without a trophy and their only remaining hope of ending their drought is winning the Premier League.

Spurs are looking to finish in the top four and qualify for next season's Champions League and they are currently four points behind Manchester City with a game in hand.
