Arsenal can try to keep up with the Premier League Title race when they visit the London Stadium to face West Ham United this Sunday.

Arsenal defeated Liverpool 3-1 at home in their last league match, their third straight win, leaving them in third place on 49 points. The Gunners are two points behind first-placed Liverpool. 

West Ham United sit in seventh place on 36 points, eight points off a Europa League spot. West Ham lost their last Premier League match 3-0 at Old Trafford against Manchester United, breaking a six-match unbeaten streak (Wins 3 Draws 3 Losses 0).

The London rivalry is renewed once more with West Ham looking for repeat success after winning the last Premier League meeting, a 2-0 victory at Emirates Stadium in December.

West Ham United vs. Arsenal Prediction and Pick

I think this game will end in an Away win with Bukayo Saka opening the scoring in the match.

Arsenal have been playing well in the new year and will be looking for as many points as possible to keep up with Liverpool and Manchester City. The Gunners are in a good position to fight for the league and a solid win would be a brilliant result for them.

Bukayo Saka has been the leading attacking threat for Arsenal, netting on eight occasions, including four match-opening goals.

I do think West Ham will put up a fight but I think Mikel Arteta’s side will be too much for the Hammers on Sunday.

Back Arsenal to win and Bukayo Saka to score first in the contest.

Pick: Arsenal -0.5 (-145) / Bukayo Saka first goal scorer
