West Ham take on the visitors Arsenal in the round 35 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Sunday, May 1st at London Stadium (London).
West Ham, perhaps, will not think about the Premier League. At the end of the season, the focus is quite noticeably shifting to the European Cup, where they managed to knock out Sevilla and Lyon. Yes, now, in the semi-finals, there was a home defeat to Eintracht. But both with the Spaniards and the French, it was the first meetings that were unsuccessfully held, and the passage further was provided in the second legs on the road. So even 1-2 with the Germans is no reason to despair. It's more of a reason now to focus on how best to hold a decisive meeting in Frankfurt am Main. And it is possible that for the sake of this they will somehow sacrifice the game in the Premier League, putting up a non-optimal squad for it and giving the leaders a rest.

It seemed that in April the Gunners ruined everything for themselves, having lost to Crystal Palace, Brighton and Southampton, Mikel Arteta's men fell out of the fight for the Champions League. But the rivals also answered with their mistakes, and the Spanish manager was able to quickly get his wards out of the slump. The capital club have consistently beaten Chelsea 4-2 and Manchester United 3-1. In fact, after this, Manchester United will no longer be able to climb to 4th place. But the struggle with Tottenham continues - there are only 2 points between the rivals. And getting around your neighbor is especially important now, given what is at stake.
West Ham have taken only 1 draw in their last 5 head-to-head matches with their neighbor. Arsenal have won all other meetings, including this season in December 2-0. West Ham will not be able to use the injured Ogbonna and Diop, and Dawson is suspended due to cards. Arsenal are left without Partey and Tierney. Arsenal are stronger and clearly more focused on the result in the Premier League. We recommend betting on the victory of the Gunners.
Prediction for the match: Arsenal to win.
