THE LOWDOWN
ARSENAL
- Arsenal bounced back strongly from defeat against Everton with a 3-0 win over Southampton in what was a dominant performance by Mikel Arteta’s side at the Emirates Stadium.
- Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang won’t feature once again for Arsenal having been suspended by the club for a disciplinary matter, whilst both goalkeeper Bernd Leno and defender Sead Kolasinac remain out injured.
WEST HAM
- West Ham found themselves frustrated by a battling Burnley side last time out, drawing 0-0 at Turf Moor and whilst they do remain inside the top four by virtue of a single point, Arsenal can leapfrog them with a win here.
- Injuries have started to bite the Hammers particularly in defence with the likes of Kurt Zouma, Angelo Ogbonna, Ben Johnson all injured and Aaron Cresswell doubtful.
THE TEAM NEWS
ARSENAL
PREDICTED XI (4-4-1-1): Ramsdale; Tomiyasu, White, Gabriel, Nuno Tavares; Saka, Partey, Xhaka, Smith-Rowe; Odegaard; Lacazette
UNAVAILABLE: Leno (Injured), Kolasinac (Injured), Aubameyang (Disciplinary)
QUESTIONABLE:
WEST HAM
PREDICTED XI (4-2-3-1): Fabianski; Coufal, Diop, Dawson, Masuaku; Soucek, Rice; Bowen, Lanzini, Benrahma; Antonio
UNAVAILABLE: Fredericks (Injured), Johnson (Injured), Ogbonna (Injured), Zouma (Injured)
QUESTIONABLE: Cresswell (Injured)
THE PREDICTION
The home form of Arsenal has proven the real catalyst behind their rise up the table, with their two most recent losses coming away from home. At Emirates Stadium, Arteta’s men have won their last four in the Premier League, keeping clean sheets in the last three of those matches. Against a West Ham side nursing injuries in key positions, home advantage may wind up a crucial factor here with the Gunners full in confidence on their own pitch, in front of their own fans and backing Arsenal via the security of the draw no bet market is worth serious consideration.
Tip: ARSENAL DRAW NO BET
