Arsenal XI vs West Ham: Predicted lineup, confirmed team news, injury latest for Premier League | OneFootball

Gunners face their trickiest test of their final three games

Mikel Arteta has close to a fully-fit squad as Arsenal take the short trip to West Ham this afternoon.

Arteta could be tempted to name the same starting lineup for the third match in a row to maintain the momentum picked up against Fulham and Atletico Madrid.

However, Martin Odegaard and Kai Havertz are now fit again and pushing to come back into the side.

Odegaard could start at No10 against West Ham, with Eberechi Eze potentially shifting to the left wing.

Viktor Gyokeres has put together his best form of the season and that is likely to be enough for him to keep his place.

There could be rotation at left-back to manage Riccardo Calafiori's fitness. Martin Zubimendi is an option in midfield having had his workload reduced in the last couple of matches, but Myles Lewis-Skelly has been superb since getting his opportunities.

Arteta confirmed that Mikel Merino and Jurrien Timber both remain unavailable for the clash with West Ham.

It remains uncertain whether the pair will play again for Arsenal this season.

"I don't know, there's still a fair bit to do so everything has to be so smooth and quick if they want to have a chance to play any minutes," Arteta said.
