  • West Ham in all competitions: L-W-L-D-W
  • Arsenal in the League: L-D-L-D-W
  • Arsenal in all competitions: L-L-D-W-W

Team News:

  • West Ham United will be without their head coach Julen Lopetegui in the dugout as he will serve a one-game touchline ban against Arsenal after being shown his third yellow card while Mohammed Kudus will be available from the next game with this game being his final of the five-match ban. The other absentee will be Niclas Fullkrug who is dealing from an Achilles tendon injury.
  • Meanwhile, Arsenal will be without defensive duo Ben White and Takehiro Tomiyasu for this clash due to knee injuries. At the same time, Gabriel Magalhaes will be assessed before this game after suffering a knock against Sporting CP in midweek.

Player(s) to watch:

  • Jarrod Bowen is turning into one of the most influential players in the Hammers squad with his importance growing more and more as games come thick and fast. The England international has three goals to his name while adding another three assists to his goal-contribution tally. However, Bowen brings much more to the side than goals as he also helps the team defensively covering a lot of ground to chase down opponents.
  • Bukayo Saka is having another marvellous season so far having registered 15 goal contributions from 17 appearances he has made this season. He is looking unstoppable at the moment with the winger brimming with confidence. His quick thinking with the ball at his feet and his ability to beat defenders at ease using his pace and dribbling skills make him the player to look out for in this game.
