Arsenal vs West Ham United Preview and Team News
Arsenal Team News
Popcorns will be the order of the day as Arsenal and West Ham United take each other on in a fiercely contested London derby in the 26th round of the Premier League on Saturday.
The Gunners, crippled by the absence of their star player Bukayo Saka due to a hamstring injury, as well as similar ones to Gabriel Martinelli and Kai Havertz, will have to hope for a miracle to save them.

And it appears as if only a miracle can save manager Mikel Arteta as he has also lost his centre-forward Gabriel Jesus for this season with an ACL injury.
With only youngsters from the academy at his disposal in the final third, Arteta will have to conjure up a veritable magical performance in this game.
However, he will be thankful that his defenders are fine, with the possible exception of Takehiro Tomiyasu. Their 2-0 win over Leicester will give Arsenal a lot of confidence as will the fact that they have scored 10 goals in their last 5 matches.
Arsenal predicted lineup vs West Ham United: (4-3-3): Raya; Timber, Saliba, Gabriel, Lewis-Skelly; Ødegaard, Partey, Rice; Nwaneri, Trossard, Sterling.
West Ham United Team News
West Ham have had a season that has gone up and down at times, and nothing will please their fans more than a win over their arch-rivals from London, Arsenal.
Although they were comprehensively beaten 2-5 in the reverse fixture in October 2024, the Hammers will still garner hopes of an improved showing in this game. They are ranked in the 16th position of the league table at the moment, as opposed to the second spot in the standings that Arsenal employ.

If West Ham continue to drop points, relegation will become a real threat, and manager Graham Potter, who came in midway through the season, will have to find a way to break the rut.
Winger Jarrod Bowen is still the most fearsome West Ham player, but the Englishman has a tendency to drop deep in order to engage the midfielders, and his presence will be crucial on the wings if his team is to stand up to Arsenal.
Injuries to Michail Antonio, Niclas Fullkrug and Crysencio Summerville will also hurt West Ham.
West Ham United predicted lineup vs Arsenal: (3-4-2-1): Areola; Coufal, Kilman, Cresswell; Wan-Bissaka, Souček, Alvarez, Emerson; Kudus, Bowen: Paquetá.
Arsenal vs West Ham United Prediction
- Pick: Arsenal to win
- Odds: -370 (20Bet)
- Score prediction: Arsenal 2-1 West Ham United
Arsenal are the favourites to win this derby, and we expect them to do so. They have beaten West Ham on 21 out of the 29 occasions they have met in the past, and lost to them on just four occasions.
The Gunners will aim to dislodge Liverpool from the top of the league table, and a win over West Ham in this fixture will set them up nicely while entering into the business end of the season. At home, Arsenal have won 12 out of the 14 matches they have played against West Ham.
Arsenal vs West Ham United Prediction, Betting Tip
- Pick: Total over 2 goals
- Odds: -323 (20Bet)
A total of over 2 goals is expected in this game. Arsenal will, quite naturally, provide most of the goals here. We have seen a total of over 2 goals in six out of the last seven meetings between these city rivals.
Although Arsenal lost 0-2 to Newcastle United prior to their win over Leicester City over the weekend, they will be proud of the 5-1 drubbing they handed defending champions Manchester City before that.
Arteta knows how to make the most out of scraps at his disposal, and one will not be surprised to see a full-fledged Arsenal side – despite the injuries to senior players – performing at top potential in this encounter.
