Hello and welcome to LIVE text commentary of the Premier League clash between West Ham and Arsenal at Upton Park. The Gunners are 11 points behind leaders Leicester City and know anything other than a victory will all-but end their slim title hopes. However, a win would move Arsene Wenger's men eight points behind the Foxes with six matches apiece still to play meaning they would still be within striking distance should the East Midlanders suffer a wobble. As for West Ham, they are locked in what looks like a three-way battle for fourth spot and will move level with the current occupants of the final Champions League berth, Manchester City (who play in the evening kick off at home to West Brom) if they can take the three points here. Kick off 12.45pm BST.

90+4'

West Ham clear. But the counter comes to nothing.

90+3'

Arsenal with a free kick midway in the West Ham half. Last chance saloon. Ozil over it...

90+2'

Lanzini lashes a fierce drive into Monreal's side. West Ham ending strongly.

90+1'

Three minutes added.

90'

The ball rolls across the face of the Arsenal box to Payet... but the man all Hammers would have wanted to be on the end of that crashes a first-time shot high into the stand. Wasteful.

89'

Arsenal need the win if they are to crank up the heat on Leicester....

88'

Antonio looks to break on the right for West Ham but his tired pass is easily intercepted.

87'

Arsenal probing. Both sides still giving it everything to try and get that winner.

86'

It looks like Arsenal's recent away form will be their undoing. The Gunners have won two of their last seven away matches - and it's looking like eight here.... Unless....

85'

Arsenal made a change a few moments ago. Walcott is on for Welbeck.

84'

Could it be Giroud? STAT: Giroud has scored five times in six Premier League games against West Ham; but just one of these goals has come at Upton Park.

83'

Seven minutes to play? Given how both sides have defended today, you'd expect a few more chances... Will we have a winner?

82'

DID YOU KNOW? Koscielny's fourth of the season was Arsenal's 1,400th PL goal with Arsène Wenger as manager.

81'

Sanchez jinks into the area and looks all set to pull the trigger on his left foot - but he opts to cut inside and try to score with his right. He's crowded out and the chance goes begging.

80'

Can this man make one more big impression on this game?

79'

Carroll has been a real handful today. A long throw causes problems once more but Arsenal finally do enough to hack it away. Any high ball has been a real concern for the Gunners this afternoon.

78'

Carroll causes more concern from the resulting corner but Reid can't convert at the near post.

77'

Cresswell lets fly from distance and Ospina makes a decent save after the ball bounced awkwardly just in front of him.

76'

Giroud back pedals to meet Monreal's cross but can't guide a difficult header on target.
