📰 Team News: West Ham United

It seems likely that The Hammers may well make use of the 3-4-2-1 formation for this one featuring Mads Hermansen, Jean-Clair Todibo, K. Mavropanos, Axel Disasi, Kyle Walker-Peters, Tomas Soucek, Mateus Fernandes, Malick Diouf, Jarrod Bowen, Pablo and Valentin Castellanos.

🗞️ Team News: Arsenal

We’re of the thinking that The Gunners might begin the game with a 4-2-3-1 formation, going with David Raya, Ben White, William Saliba, Gabriel, Piero Hincapie, Declan Rice, Myles Lewis-Skelly, Bukayo Saka, Martin Oedegaard, Leandro Trossard and Viktor Gyoekeres.

🧠 Prediction

Our thinking is that West Ham United may find it difficult to score against this Arsenal lineup who we reckon will manage to get a goal of their own in a winning performance.

We therefore fancy a good tussle with a 0-1 winning score for Arsenal at the end of the match.

Little in this one.
