Our prediction for the West Ham - Arsenal match
The "Hammers" have spent the previous seasons under the management of David Moyes, a coach who was almost written off, but was brought in to stabilize the team after Pellegrini's failure in London—and he led them to a Conference League win in 2023. Last season, the team reached the Europa League playoffs while finishing 9th in the Premier League. Meanwhile, "The Gunners" finally returned to the Champions League, but were knocked out in the playoffs by their usual nemesis, Bayern Munich. They also fell short of toppling Manchester City in the Premier League, finishing just two points behind the champions.
It seemed like Arteta was ready to surpass his former mentor. His team even came close to winning in Manchester despite being reduced to ten men. However, at the end of October, a series of injuries led to a disappointing run. The favorite lost to Bournemouth and Liverpool in the Premier League, with draws against Liverpool and Chelsea, and in the Champions League, after a tough win over Shakhtar, they lost to Inter. However, the break clearly helped: after it, they not only defeated Nottingham Forest, but also demolished Sporting Lisbon. The "Hammers" bet on Lopetegui and spent tens of millions on new signings, but they have managed just a few wins, with losses in nearly half of their matches. They were also thrashed 1-5 by Liverpool in the League Cup. Still, this team also benefited from the break, coming out with an away win over Newcastle in the previous round.
Under Lopetegui, with a strong squad featuring Bowen and Antonio, West Ham score less than 1.2 goals per game. Defensive issues are also evident, as they concede over 1.7 goals per match. As for Arsenal, Raya lets in about one goal per game, while their attack scores an average of 1.6 goals against opponents.
