Hammers look for remarkable treble

A fiery London derby awaits this Sunday as high-flying Arsenal lock horns with a wounded West Ham United as we bid for a remarkable treble over them.

Hammers look for remarkable treble

Mikel Arteta’s men, fresh off a morale-boosting win over Liverpool, march into enemy territory seeking revenge for their Carabao Cup and Premier League home defeats to the Hammers earlier this season.

The Gunners are in scintillating form, their title aspirations rekindled after their 3-1 demolition of the league leaders. However, memories of West Ham’s clinical display in the cup competition serve as a stark reminder that David Moyes’ men shouldn’t be underestimated, despite their recent slump.

The Irons have endured a torrid spell, winless in six matches across all competitions. A 3-0 defeat to Manchester United exposed some serious vulnerabilities in their defence, leaving Moyes searching for answers as his side precariously teeters on the edge of the European positions.

There can be absolutely no errors at the back against the Gooners given that incredibly offensive approach to games.

Despite our struggles, we do boast an impressive home record, remaining unbeaten in last six Premier League games at the London Stadium.

Only Manchester City and Everton have managed to breach our fortress this season, highlighting our resilience under the familiar roar of the home crowd.
