West Ham United are set to play Arsenal at the London Stadium on Sunday in the English Premier League.

West Ham United come into this game on the back of a 2-1 loss to Oliver Glasner's Eintracht Frankfurt in the first leg of the semi-final of the UEFA Europa League.

Arsenal, on the other hand, beat Ralf Rangnick's Manchester United in the English Premier League. Goals from Portuguese left-back Nuno Tavares, England international Bukayo Saka and Swiss midfielder Granit Xhaka secured the win for Mikel Arteta's Arsenal. Portuguese striker Cristiano Ronaldo scored the goal for Manchester United.

West Ham United vs Arsenal Prediction

West Ham United are 7th in the league, three points behind 6th-placed Manchester United, who have played a game more. The Hammers have clearly prioritised success in the Europa League.

Manager David Moyes deserves praise for the fine job he has done since becoming the manager of the club for the second time. Under him, the Hammers have improved continuously, and players like Declan Rice, Jarrod Bowen and Tomas Soucek have all improved.

Arsenal, on the other hand, are fourth in the league, two points ahead of 5th-placed Tottenham Hotspur. They seem likely to play Champions League football next season, and given their performances, they deserve to do so. However, there are some glaring problems, in particular, a lack of a prolific goalscorer.

With Alexandre Lacazette likely to leave the club this summer, and with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang having already left, Arsenal need to sign attacking reinforcements. It is no surprise to see the club linked with Roma's Tammy Abraham and Manchester City's Gabriel Jesus.

Arsenal should win.
