West Ham United Preview – Can the Hammers get back on track in the league?
West Ham United have had another strong season in the Premier League. Their top-four hopes have been dealt a blow after some iffy results of late, but the Hammers look good for another top-seven finish.
West Ham’s full focus right now will be on their UEFA Europa League semi-final with Eintracht Frankfurt. David Moyes’ men lost the first leg at the London Stadium last Thursday, but they will fancy their chances of turning the tie around in Germany.
United’s form in the Premier League has dipped of late, with the east London club picking up just four wins from the last 13. Nevertheless, can they end a three-game winless run by taking all three points from this one? The hosts are the underdogs at 10/3.
Arsenal Preview – Will the Gunners return home with maximum points?
Arsenal are looking for Champions League football after a six-year spell away from Europe’s elite club competition. The Gunners are in fourth position at present, two points above rivals Tottenham Hotspur, who are fifth. The pair still have to play at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium before the season ends.
After three defeats in a row and four losses in five, Arsenal have got back on track with huge wins over Chelsea and Manchester United in their last two. They won 4-2 at Stamford Bridge before seeing off the Red Devils with a 3-1 home victory.
