Match of the Day Live: Tottenham Hotspur v Arsenal

BBC One
on BBC One London

Introduced by Jimmy Hill
New Year soccer live on TV starts with a cracker in prospect and the supremacy of north London at stake as Tottenham and Arsenal meet for the 100th time in the Football League. They kick off with the record exactly level: 39 wins a piece, followed by a draw for the 21st time when they clashed at Highbury in September.
Arsenal pleasantly surprised new manager George Graham by leading the Championship into December, against his belief that they are not yet ready for their ninth League title.
What Tottenham's new boss, David Pleat, is plotting in the battle of these fierce London rivals is something we are about to find out.
