    Arsenal 0-0 Tottenham

    Good spell from Tottenham now, steady possession at the back, Harry Winks is fouled to break it up. Dele Alli and Matteo Guendouzi have a bit of an off the ball scuffle...

    That's close! Henrikh Mkhitaryan nods on a corner which goes right through the goalmouth, Nacho Monreal is close to meeting it on the slide but he can't get there.

    Was he impeded? Kieran Trippier had a grab at his arm...

    Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino to Sky Sports: "They [the players selected] feel 100% recovery after the Burnley game. That is why we play with this team. We have until Sunday to recover for another game.

    "This kind of competition is good to give an opportunity to different players."

    Arsenal manager Unai Emery to Sky Sports: "We can play with three or two [at the back]. The most important thing is to be organised and I think in the 90 minutes we can play with a back four or three."

    On Mesut Ozil not being in the squad: "It's only tactical."
