In the seventh round of the English Premier League, Arsenal will face West Ham at the Emirates Stadium. This match takes place on Saturday, October 3, starting at 16:00 Central European Time. Here’s a look at some key facts ahead of the game.
Arsenal have strengthened their squad this summer, providing coach Mikel Arteta with more options. They began the season confidently, losing only to Liverpool and drawing with Manchester City, while winning their other matches. After six rounds, Arsenal sits second in the table with 13 points, just two points behind the leaders. They have also performed well in the UEFA Champions League, winning both of their first matches.
West Ham, however, has struggled this season. They have only one win, along with four losses and a draw, leaving them with just four points in 19th place. The club has made a coaching change, appointing former Nottingham manager Nuno Espírito Santo to replace Graham Potter. The new manager aims to revive the team’s spirit and help West Ham escape the relegation zone.
Despite West Ham’s managerial change, Arsenal remains the favorite to win. A good bet is on Arsenal scoring over two goals.
