Arsenal is riding on a high note as Sunday’s match approaches v West Ham United.
The Gunners are 5 points clear at the top of the Premier League table, as well as qualifying to play in the Champions League Final on May 30th. Yes, Arsenal is in a very good place.
However, as all eyes return to the Premier League title race v Manchester City, Arsenal will win the coveted trophy with three straight victories in their final 3 league matches. There is little room for error as Man City is still in the title discussion.
Mikel Arteta heads to London Stadium on Sunday with a healthy squad. Only Mikel Merino and Jurrien Timber remain sidelined.
A strong performance will be needed since West Ham is fighting for survival in the Premier League. The Hammers have a lot riding ion this match as well.
With that said, here is my predicted starting XI v West Ham United…
[4-3-3]
Eze, Gyokeres, Saka
Rice, Odegaard, Lewis-Skelly
Hincapie, Gabriel, Saliba, White
Raya
Predicted final score: West Ham United 0 – ARSENAL 2
