Arsenal are hoping to take a big step towards the Premier League title as they take on West Ham this weekend.
West Ham come into this game sorely in need of a win as they fight to secure Premier League survival. The Hammers' fate is no longer in their own hands after losing 3-0 at Brentford last weekend as Tottenham claimed a 2-1 win away at Aston Villa. That pair of results means West Ham are now one point shy of safety with three games left to play.
Their form heading into this game is unconvincing, with two wins, one draw and three defeats from their last six games. Their recent record against Arsenal is also a concern, with the Hammers losing three of their last four head-to-head meetings with the Gunners.
They rarely draw a blank in front of goal when playing at home, scoring in ten of their last eleven games at the London stadium. They've kept only two clean sheets in their last eleven homes games, though, so they'll likely need to score at least two goals to win this one.
Arsenal, meanwhile, enter this game at arguably their best point of the season. The Gunners are fresh off the back of a 1-0 win over Atletico Madrid in the second leg of their Champions League semi-final, securing only the second-ever Champions League final appearance for the club.
The win also came in the wake of title rivals Manchester City dropping points at Everton, putting the league title firmly back in Arsenal's hands with just three games remaining.
Arsenal have delivered successive strong performances, with the win over Atletico proceeded by a 3-0 win over Fulham where the Gunners displayed aggression and dynamism in a strong showing.
Bukayo Saka appears to be slowly returning to his best, with the England man recording two goals and one assist in his last two games for the club, with his goal proving the difference maker in Europe on Tuesday night.
BTTS is a common feature of Arsenal's games away from the Emirates, with eight of their last ten games seeing both sides find the back of the net.
In what is a huge game for both sides, Arsenal are clear favourites and should get the job done given momentum is firmly on their side.
West Ham 1-2 Arsenal
