London Derby: Arsenal’s Hope Against West Ham

A crucial weekend awaits second-placed Arsenal as they look to keep the pressure on Premier League leaders Liverpool when they host West Ham United on Saturday in a London derby at the Emirates Stadium as part of Match week 26.

The Gunners remain firmly in the title race, and this derby presents a key opportunity to stay in contention, given the statistical differences between the two sides.

Arsenal is chasing a fourth consecutive victory and their eighth win in ten matches, despite struggling with injuries, including the absence of German forward Kai Havertz, who has been a pivotal figure in their attack this season.

Mikel Arteta’s men will look to capitalize on West Ham’s inconsistent form. The Hammers sit 16th in the table with 27 points, having won just once in their last seven league matches. They are also winless in their last four, managing only a single point.

Here are key statistics to help you predict the correct score and win with Betway:

Arsenal has won 37 Premier League matches against West Ham, making the Hammers the second-most defeated team by the Gunners, after Everton (38 losses). Arsenal has beaten West Ham more times than any other opponent they have faced.
West Ham won 2-0 in their first meeting last season. The last time they secured back-to-back league victories over Arsenal was in the 2005-06 and 2006-07 seasons when they became the last team to win at Highbury and the first to win at the Emirates.
Arsenal won their last two league encounters against West Ham by emphatic scorelines—6-0 and 5-2. The only team to score five or more goals in three consecutive matches against a single opponent in the Premier League is Liverpool (against Norwich City between 2012 and 2013).
The last time Arsenal scored five or more goals in three consecutive league games against any team was against Middlesbrough (1930-1932), while West Ham has only conceded five or more goals in three straight matches against Aston Villa (1930-31).
Arsenal is unbeaten in their last 15 league matches, their longest streak since a 16-game unbeaten run between December 2010 and April 2011. They are also unbeaten in their last 15 home league matches, a run last achieved between August 2018 and April 2019.
West Ham has won just one of their last seven league matches (D1, L5), with their only victory coming in Graham Potter’s first game in charge against Fulham (3-2). Against Arsenal, this will be their fifth London derby in just six matches under Potter, having lost the last three.
Only Bournemouth (12 goals) and Fulham (11 goals) have scored more Premier League goals via substitutes than Arsenal (9 goals) this season, with four of those coming in their last three matches.
Potter has won three of his four managerial visits to the Emirates against Arsenal. Only Pep Guardiola (8) and Jürgen Klopp (6) have won more away matches at the stadium as visiting managers. His 75% away win rate at the Emirates is the highest for any manager with at least three matches there.
