Arsenal and West Ham meet for the second time in seven days, having played out a 0-0 draw at the London Stadium last week, as the two sides go head to head tonight in the quarter-finals of the League Cup.
Arsenal, as expected in the previous fixture, dominated possession but were unable to break down a stubborn West Ham team that restricted Arsenal to a mere three shots on target. David Moyes will want a similarly committed display against an Arsenal side that Arsene Wenger will be sure to rotate ahead of a tough fixture against Liverpool at the Emirates on Friday.
Follow all of the live action below
62' - Arthur Masuaku embarks on a mazy run down the left wing before being hacked down by Mathieu Debuchy just outside the box. Aaron Cresswell takes the resulting free-kick but the ball sails wide of David Ospina's goal.
65' - Andy Carroll and Diafra Sakho replace Aaron Cresswell and Javier Hernandez for West Ham.
72' - Now that is close.
Joe Hart brings Danny Welbeck down on the very edge of the box as the Arsenal striker chases down a teammate's lofted through ball. Welbeck appeals for a penalty but the referee plays it safe and signals for a free-kick instead.
76' - I've covered my fair share of dull games in the last few months. Arsenal's goalless draw with Red Star Belgrade at the start of November was extremely poor but this match is running that one close for the worst I've seen all season.
77' - Arsenal's Olivier Giroud goes off with a hamstring injury and Reiss Nelson replaces him.
80' - Arsenal, in typical Arsenal style, attempt to pass the ball into the net but the move breaks down at the key moment as Mohamed Elneny's failure to control Theo Walcott's cut-back in the box allows West Ham to clear the danger.
84' - Domingos Quina is replaced by Marko Arnautovic for West Ham, while Joe Willock is replaced by Ben Sheaf for Arsenal.
Leicester 0-1 Manchester City
Away from the Emirates we're currently in the third of EIGHT added minutes in the game between Leicester and Manchester City at the King Power Stadium.
City still lead through Bernardo Silva's first-half goal.
