West Ham vs Arsenal 01/11/23 Preview:
David Moyes’ side have lost to Aston Villa, Olympiakos and Everton in the past 10 days. They’ve offered a limited threat in those games, producing 0.92xG on average.
Arsenal have started the season in impressive form since lifting the Community Shield. Arteta’s side have lost just once in all competitions and remain unbeaten in domestic competition.
The most impressive feature of their play has been their ability to control games on the road, winning four of their five domestic games with a clean sheet.
Arsenal have kept the most clean sheets in the Premier League and boast both the second best attack and defence.
Balancing life in Europe with domestic duties is starting to look like a chore for the Hammers, so Arsenal’s extra quality off the bench and fresher legs point towards an away win.
It’s also worth noting that they are on an eight-match unbeaten run against West Ham, scoring at least two goals in each of the last six meetings.
Eight of the last nine they’ve scored have come in the second half, while West Ham have conceded six second-half goals in three Premier League matches.
With tired legs likely to be a factor, Arsenal to win the second half could be another profitable avenue.
Despite looking vulnerable, there’s still plenty of reason to believe the hosts can find the net.
They’ve scored in each of the last five meetings at the Olympic Stadium, netting eight times in total.
Arsenal have kept a lot of clean sheets, but their hectic schedule might be catching up with them. They have conceded in each of their last three away games in all competitions.
West Ham vs Arsenal 01/11/23 Prediction:
- Arsenal to win the second half
- Both teams to score
- Arsenal to win
