Team News
Arsenal
West Ham
- David Ospina should continue in goal, with Petr Cech unlikely to be rushed back into action following a calf injury.
- Elsewhere Laurent Koscielny is a major doubt so Gabriel should partner Mustafi at the back, while both Ramsey and Oxlade-Chamberlain missed out at the weekend with minor muscular injuries that could see them sidelined once more.
- The likes of Giroud and Iwobi will hope to come into the starting XI, with the former the more likely to come in for Danny Welbeck.
- Mark Noble could return to the side at the expense of Andre Ayew to allow Manuel Lanzini to operate closer to Andy Carroll at the Emirates.
- Elsewhere Slaven Bilic will be keen to have Michail Antonio back available following a thigh injury, though Aaron Cresswell was forced off at Hull and is a doubt for Wednesday.
- If the left-back does miss out then Arthur Masuaku will take his place at left-back, with James Collins continuing to partner Jose Fonte in the absence of both Reid and Ogbonna.
Good win. Didn't play amazingly well, but did enough. The rule is vague on what should be given as a free kick re: handball. Walcott's arm was in an unnatural position but similarly it wasn't clear he was intentionally trying to handle it so is it a hand ball or not? Either way, we were good value for the goal at that stage so Hammers fans can't really complain. Oezil and Alexis were very good in the 2nd half. Bellerin should've scored from a wonderful ball by Alexis and Giroud scored another cracker to add to his CV. It was important that we got 3 points after toughing out a draw against City and that we did so can't complain. Weren't even many boos at full time. This was Oezil's 150th total game for Arsenal and his 107th in the league. In that time (league) he has created 357 chances and scored 21 goals with a pass accuracy of 87.5% (especially high playing in the #10). Extrapolating to his 150th league game and he will have created 500 chances and scored 29 goals. Not bad.
West Ham r so terrible and unmotivated now. So I would expect them to lose again. BUT.... they r playing arsenal, so.... I predict X2. Sad day for the gunners
Alexis should play as a striker instead of on the wing, he is way more effective in the middle
3-1 Arsenal
5-1
WENGER OUT !!!!!!!!
West Ham haven't beaten any of the teams currently sitting in the top 11 places of the table and are in a terrible run of form. Arsenal should win this by a couple of goals even if the scores are still tied at half time.
@MEHJones Although when Arsenal played West Ham in August 2015 they had 61% possession and 22 shots and still lost 2-0 so strange things can happen.
Arsenal win no doubt
I see a score draw here.
@Enigma I have money on the draw 5-1 odds.
arsenal to win and both teams to score Nuff said
1-0 thrashing, WH losing streak to continue for now...
3 0
Ha, I've been cloned as well as @neumi17 . I'm honoured. As for this game, I think we'll win. Neither team are in amazing form but West Ham are losing to everyone at the moment. Us being at home and coming off an ok point against City should make us favourites. As @Overmars said below, we can't defend at the moment and aren't creating loads so it will probably be a narrow win. 2-1.
@SteveHyland Not quite sure why my comment was deleted.
@Overmars- You used a naughty word beginning with s and rhyming with hit. :-p
3:0
@albgunn get some likes here.. stop pi*sing about I know Arsenal!
The way I see it, if Arsenal fails to win in here, they won't be able to finish in top 4.
Espero que Arsenal vença 2x0 mas também quero Wenger fora no fim da temporada.
@Wildemar Com essa má fase, acredito que o Arsenal tome algum gol.
