West Ham vs Arsenal – Preview, and Prediction
West Ham vs Arsenal – Wednesday night at London Stadium, West Ham and Arsenal will face off in the League Cup’s round of sixteen.
Both teams come into the match in diametrically opposed moods. The Hammers lost 0-1 against Everton at home on Sunday, their third straight defeat.
It was just another dreadful offensive display from David Moyes’ team, who have now only managed two goals in their last three games across all competitions.
It’s definitely not the kind of form you want to take into the match against one of the top teams in the nation, especially after that group had defeated their rivals by five goals in a row just four days prior.
On Saturday afternoon at the Emirates, Arsenal easily defeated Sheffield United 5-0, humiliating the Premier League’s bottom team.
With Martin Odegaard (resting) and Gabriel Jesus (hurt) not there, Eddie Nketiah stole the show by completing a hat-trick on the occasion.
Given that Mikel Arteta’s team has a crucial Premier League match against Newcastle at St. James’ Park the following Saturday, we should anticipate him rotating his lineup even more for this match.
West Ham vs Arsenal – Betting Analysis
The Gunners and Arsenal have previously competed against one another four times, with the Gunners taking three of the triumphs and Arsenal tying one of them.
The Gunners have won 67 games, drawn 36, and lost 29 against West Ham in 132 encounters. The past six matches between these rivals have all had three or more goals.
This game is hard to call. Arsenal is playing better coming into it, but Arteta may rest some key players for their matches against Sevilla in the UEFA Champions League and Newcastle this weekend.
