Arsenal definitely knows if they want to be table till the end of the year they have to win this match but this does not mean West ham will be sleeping in the match. I guess we all can agree that Arsenal will win this match but I don't they will be topping the league for long, Liverpool more likely will be crown Epl champion, since City are far from their best and still continue to have injury woes
Arsenal's play is getting better right now. I'm not afraid of West Ham because I know Arsenal will do admirably against them. West Ham is a minor team from Arsenal's perspective, given their efforts and achieved the draw with Liverpool. When Arsenal plays West Ham today, they should be able to overtake Liverpool for the top standing. My prediction is that arsenal should score 2 goals so that we can get full three points make we able celebrate the new year with the first standing at the table.
I think Arsenal are favorites against West Ham. Arsenal will try to regain the top spot in the table in this match. It is also Arsenal's home match.
Arsenal are trying to dominate the match Arsenal players have 72% of the ball possession. They are also trying to create attacking opportunities. However, Arsenal have already conceded a goal. In the 13th minute, Tomas Soucek's goal gave West Ham the lead. West Ham will probably play defensively now. It will be very difficult for Arsenal to make a comeback in this match.
