Mark Lawrenson states his prediction for West Ham United vs Arsenal

BBC football expert Mark Lawrenson has stated his prediction for the Premier League clash between West Ham United and Arsenal this weekend.

The Hammers recently suffered a 1-0 league defeat at Manchester United, but they are still within three points of fourth-placed Chelsea with a game in hand.

David Moyes’ side are scheduled to host the Gunners on Sunday and Lawrenson feels the club will be determined to avoid a second-straight defeat.

The Gunners are currently seven points behind the Hammers in the 10th spot, but they are unbeaten in the last three games in the top-flight (two wins and one draw).
