Your support makes all the difference.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.

GOAL ALERT! Leicester 0-1 Manchester City (Vardy, pen, 90+7)
Late drama at the King Power Stadium as Jamie Vardy levels proceedings from the spot after Kyle Walker was adjudged to have fouled Demarai Gray in the box!
Extra-time, here we come!
Full-time - Arsenal 1-0 West Ham
The final whistle goes and Arsenal are into the last four courtesy of Danny Welbeck's first-half goal.
The final whistle has also gone at the King Power Stadium, where we're going to extra-time after a 1-1 draw.
91' - Extra-time is underway between Leicester and Manchester City.
91' - Gabriel Jesus gets on the end of Kyle Walker's cross but his tame header is straight at Ben Hamer and the Leicester stopper makes an easy save.
95' - Kyle Walker goes down in the box after a challenge by Harry Maguire but the referee sees through the City full-back's dive and books him for simulation.
103' - Claudio Bravo, what are you doing?!
The City goalkeeper reckons it's wise to take a touch under pressure from Jamie Vardy and almost pays the price as his attempted clearance hits the Leicester striker and goes narrowly wide for a goal-kick.
It's half-time in extra-time and Pep Guardiola is down on the pitch giving an extremely animated team talk to his players.
How very Pep Guardiola.
