West Ham vs Arsenal Betting Tips, Predictions, Lineups & Odds (Premier League - 12.1.2019)
- Written by David Bet
Gameweek 22 of the 2018/19 English Premier League season gets underway with a London derby as West Ham face Arsenal on lunch-time kick-off. Who will claim the bragging right at the London Stadium? Check out here our West Ham vs Arsenal betting preview with expert predictions, betting tips, probable line-ups, team news, enahnced odds, exclusive free bets and no deposit free bets on this fixture!
Fabian Balbuena has been ruled out for six to eight weeks and joins a lengthy injury list that includes Ryan Fredericks, Winston Reid, Andriy Yarmolenko, Manuel Lanzini, Carlos Sanchez, Jack Wilshere and Chicharito Hernandez. Marko Arnautovic should be fit to start this weekend, and is likely to be used despite the latest speculation over his future. Should the Austrian miss the match, Manuel Pellegrini could opt for Andy Carroll. Robert Snodgrass and Felipe Anderson should start as wingers, with Grady Diangana and Michail Antonio further alternatives on the wing. Declan Rice is now a permanent fixture in central midfield while Samir Nasri is expected to be in the squad and could make his first Premier League appearance since 2016.
Mesut Ozil, Shkodran Mustafi, Nacho Monreal, Laurent Koscielny and Hector Bellerin have all returned to full training and will be assessed ahead of the kick-off. Roby Holding, Danny Welbeck and Henrikh Mkhitaryan will all miss the trip to east London. Alex Iwobi and Maitland-Niles have impressed in recent weeks, however, and arguably deserve to retain their starts. The former will complete the front trio alongside Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette. The latter will start as wing back at right, with Sead Kolasinac on the other flank. A rested Lucas Torreira looks set for a recall in central midfield, although Matteo Guendouzi is pushing for a start.
Arsenal (3-4-3): Leno; Koscielny, Mustafi, Sokratis; Kolasinac, Maitland-Niles, Torreira, Xhaka; Iwobi, Aubameyang; Lacazette

West Ham vs Arsenal betting preview
West Ham look to push up the top half of the table
West Ham have won 5 of their last 8 in the Premier League and only lost twice. As a result, they sit 10th in the table, just 3 points adrift of Leicester in 7th. The Hammers beat Birmingham City 2-0 last weekend to book a FA Cup fourth-round clash at AFC Wimbledon. They drew 2-2 at home against Brighton in their last EPL fixture and lost 2-0 at Burnley prior to that. A big concern will be the fact that they have not kept a clean sheet in a league match at the London Stadium in their last eight attempts. Furthermore, Manuel Pellegrini's men have won only one of their last 12 meetings with Arsenal and have failed to win their last six home match ups with the Gunners, losing four.Fabian Balbuena has been ruled out for six to eight weeks and joins a lengthy injury list that includes Ryan Fredericks, Winston Reid, Andriy Yarmolenko, Manuel Lanzini, Carlos Sanchez, Jack Wilshere and Chicharito Hernandez.

Arsenal hope to put the pressure on Chelsea in the race for a top 4 spot
Arsenal have bounced back from their hammering at the hands of Liverpool with a comprehensive win over Fulham. The Gunners are struggling on the road and have failed to win in their last four Premier League away games. They have gone W4-D3-L3 so far, with victories coming against Cardiff, Newcastle, Fulham and Bournemouth – all of whom reside in the bottom half of the table. Unai Emery's men also progressed in FA Cup at the weekend, as they will host Manchester United after defeating Blackpool 3-0. As to direct matches, the Gunners were 3-1 victors when these two teams met at the Emirates Stadium in August.Mesut Ozil, Shkodran Mustafi, Nacho Monreal, Laurent Koscielny and Hector Bellerin have all returned to full training and will be assessed ahead of the kick-off.
