All away tickets – just over 3,000 – have been sold for the game but the 90 minutes can be followed live in the UK on Amazon Prime Video.

Commentary in the UK will be available on TalkSPORT, BBC Radio London 94.9FM and worldwide on whufc.com or the club’s official app.

The club reports that the best option is to travel utilising TfL lines, with each of the main tubes expected to be operating with a good service again following Christmas.

The closest station is Arsenal, on the Piccadilly line, which is just a three-minute walk from the Emirates Stadium. Finsbury Park, which is also on the Piccadilly and Victoria lines, as well as Great Northern Rail, is also only a ten-minute walk and is usually less congested on matchdays.

As reported earlier on Claret and Hugh the Hammers are likely to be without Nayef Aguerd who has had a bad bout of flu and Michail Antonio.
