Arsenal's Midfield Overload vs. West Ham's Resilience
The midfield battle between Declan Rice and Lucas Paquetá will be the defining clash. Rice, who left West Ham for Arsenal in a £105 million deal, will be looking to dominate his former club. West Ham, despite their inconsistent 9-9-17 record, have shown they can grind out results, especially at home, but Arsenal’s 23-7-5 league form has been relentless.
Thing is, Arsenal's attacking quality, particularly with Bukayo Saka finding form, is just too much for this Hammers side.
I’m calling it: Arsenal 3, West Ham 1. **West Ham’s defensive frailties will be exposed by Arsenal's potent attack.**
