Arsenal vs West Ham prediction and odds ahead of Premier League clash

image

This coming weekend, the football world will be fixated on the Emirates Stadium, where Arsenal is set to take on West Ham United. As Arsenal intensifies its pursuit of Liverpool, currently leading the Premier League, this game could prove pivotal. With one game less played than Liverpool and trailing by eight points, a win for Arsenal could see them reduce the gap to five points as the season approaches its decisive stages.

The Gunners go into this match as the favourites at 27/10 with CopyBet while the Irons are 17/2 and a draw is 24/5. The hosts are unbeaten in their last 15 Premier League matches which is their longest run since April 2011 and will be keen to extend that to put pressure on the title race this weekend.

Liverpool’s position at the top took a hit following their 2-2 draw with Aston Villa earlier this week. This unexpected result has opened a window for Arsenal to make significant progress in their title challenge. Key to their ambitions will be Mikel Merino, who has emerged as a solution to Mikel Arteta’s striker dilemma, following his impressive two-goal performance against Leicester City last weekend. This comes at a crucial time with Kai Havertz ruled out for the remainder of the season.

In contrast, West Ham is grappling with instability under the new leadership of Graham Potter. Their standing in the league is uncertain and there’s a looming risk of them being dragged into a relegation battle. Despite recent defeats to Chelsea, Crystal Palace and Brentford, there are signs of improvement since they parted ways with Julen Lopetegui.
