The gap between Arsenal and Leicester appears to great to overcome given that only 6 games remain in the 2015/16 Premier League season; however, the Gunners still stand a chance of finishing ahead of Spurs in second spot.
Wenger’s boys trail by four point but have a game in hand over Tottenham, but will need to win on Saturday against West Ham to avoid complicating the situation.
Unfortunately for the north London giants, they’ll have to travel to Boleyn Ground, a stadium which has proven difficult to come away from with a win. Will Arsenal be able to grab all three points this weekend?
Team news – who’s fit and who’s not?
Arsenal’s injury list is slowly easing up, as Jack Wilshere and Thomas Rosicky have both returned to fitness, though they’ll begin their return to the first-team with an u21 match on Friday.
Petr Cech appears ready to take up his rightful spot in between the sticks after recovering from a calf injury, whilst Aaron Ramsey (thigh) is also in contention having returned to fitness.
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Santi Cazorla (both knee) still remain on the sidelines.
Slaven Bilic could field a strong squad on Saturday, as James Collins and Sam Bryam are the only two injured players.
Fortunately for the Hammers, Cheikhou Kouyate will be available, having won their appeal against the Senegalese midfielder’s red card.
Head to head
Boleyn Ground has turned into a fortress in its very last season as West Ham’s home ground. The last time the Hammers locked horns with Le Prof’s crew, Bilic’s side won 2-0.
However, the Gunners have the better record when playing away to West Ham. In fact, one will have to go back over six years to 2009 for the last time the north London giants dropped points at West Ham, courtesy of a 2-2 draw.
The last time the Gunners lost at Boleyn Ground was in November 2006.
Luckily for Dmitri Payet and Co. – still vying for a Champions League spot – they’ve not lost in their last 13 home games.
