Welcome to Eurosport-Yahoo!'s live coverage of the Premier League clash between Arsenal and West Ham United at the Emirates Stadium!

Both of these sides made it through to the Carling Cup quarter-finals in midweek, but in very different styles. Arsenal claimed a comfortable 4-0 win at Newcastle, while the Hammers needed extra time to make it past Stoke City. They have been rewarded with home ties against Wigan and Manchester United respectively.

Arsenal are currently level on points with both Manchester clubs, and they are all five points behind Chelsea. The Blues will play at Blackburn and City face Wolves at the same time as this match. The Gunners can go three points clear of their northern rivals with a win here - at least until United face Spurs later today. West Ham are currently bottom, level on points with Wolves and Liverpool.
