Arsenal v West Ham: match preview

Arsenal v West Ham

Arsenal’s unlikely Champions League tilt will have real momentum if they rack up a third consecutive win. It could make for a tense affair given that their season is, since losing in the Europa League Olympiakos, on something of a knife-edge and West Ham themselves desperately need points. David Moyes visits his one-time midfield maestro at Everton, Mikel Arteta, and will think a good performance at Anfield and resounding win over Southampton have formed a solid basis to trouble opponents who remain fragile.
