  We discuss some aspects of the interplay between the top quark and the Higgs
boson at the LHC. First we describe what indirect information on the top Yukawa
coupling can be extracted from measurements in the Higgs sector. We then show
that the study of processes involving $Ht\bar{t}$ and $Hb\bar{b}$ final states
can give us information on the spectrum in models of strong electroweak
symmetry breaking. In particular, we introduce a novel analysis of the
$Hb\bar{b}\to bb\bar{b}\bar{b}$ channel with an excellent discovery potential
at the LHC.
