Premier league actions return tomorrow with lots of exciting fixtures. FA Cup 5th round is over as we await the quarter-finals fixtures. Attention now turns to the premier league action kicking off tomorrow. Arsenal set to face West Ham United at home in an exciting London derby showdown later tomorrow.
Arsenal have found a bit of form recently and their last premier league game have seen them earn crucial back-to-back wins to put them very close to competing in the top 4 race. Like we all know, this season have been a very difficult one for the Gunners as they continue to fight to get things right. Looking at their recent games and results, it looks like they are beginning to find their mojo again. Playing champions league football have been something Arsenal and their fans have missed for quite some time now, however, there is still hope for them this season, even though they are out of the Europa league, making finishing in the top 4 their only hope of playing in the champions league next season. Their quest continues later tomorrow when they host West Ham in an exciting London Derby clash, a must-win game for them to continue putting pressure on the teams above them on the table.
Arsenal are expected to set up in a 4-2-3-1 formation in this game. As the home side and as the more superior side, they are expected to have more of the ball and come on top in major aspects of the game. However, this is a London Derby which makes this fixture a tricky and a difficult one for Arsenal as they need to be at their very best and perform at a top-level if they want to get the job done at home.
West Ham are back to winning ways in their last match after going consecutive matches without a win. At the moment, they are in a very difficult position even though their position on the table look safe. A loss in this game could see them into the relegation zone, so for them, this game against Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium is a must-not lose game for them.
The Hammers are expected to set up in a 4-1-4-1 or a 4-4-2 formation. They will most likely be going into this game to counter-attack and try to utilize their set-piece prowess to cause Arsenal problems.
What do you think will be the outcome of this fixture?
I would love to read your thoughts and opinions… Enjoy your day.
