Preview: West Ham United v Arsenal

Fresh off our stunning Champions League success in Lisbon, we aim to keep building momentum when we travel to West Ham United on Saturday evening (5.30pm UK), aiming to keep the pressure up on the league leaders.

With Liverpool hosting Manchester City the following day, there is an opportunity to move into second spot this weekend or close the gap on the Reds at the summit, but only if we can continue our superb record at the Hammers, where we’ve lost just one of our last 16 Premier League away games.

But the east Londoners will be buoyed by their own success on the road this week as they left Newcastle United with a 2-0 victory, allowing the pressure to ease slightly on Julen Lopetegui, who watch from the stands as he serves a touchline ban.
