Arsene Wengers side were then 3-1 up by half-time after goals from Per Mertesacker, Lukas Podolski and Olivier Giroud.Santi Cazorla made it 4-1 before Gareth Bale got one back to give Spurs a glimmer of hope with 19 minutes left.Any hope was extinguished when Theo Walcott added a fifth in the final minute of the match. It was the joint-heaviest defeat Spurs have suffered at the hands of Arsenal in the Premier League.They lost by the same scoreline nine months earlier at the Emirates. On that occasion, Tottenham had a 2-0 lead before conceding five goals.There is hope going into this north London derby, though, as Spurs have won five of their last seven home Premier League games against Arsenal, including each of the last two.This will be the fifth meeting between Tottenham and Arsenal at Wembley, with Spurs winning two. They could become the first team to beat the Gunners on three separate occasions at the stadium.
