Adrian Chiles introduces highlights of two Premier League games - Tottenham v Arsenal and West Ham v Manchester United. The north London derby is always an occasion to savour and with both sides desperate for points, their clash at White Hart Lane has even more importance. Arsenal need to build momentum in their push for a Champions League place while Harry Redknapp's Tottenham are facing a relegation battle. But Redknapp could at least call upon a happy first experience of facing the Gunners as the Spurs manager - just days after he took over earlier this season, Tottenham fought back with two last-minute goals to snatch a famous 4-4 draw against their local rivals. In the day's other game, Manchester United continue their quest to retain their title with a visit to West Ham. The Hammers have proved something of a bogey team for Sir Alex Ferguson's men and are looking for their third consecutive home win over United. Last season, the champions looked to be on course for victory at Upton Park when Cristiano Ronaldo scored with a header but the Portuguese star then missed a penalty and West Ham stormed back with two late goals to earn a 2-1 win.
