England – Premier League | Arsenal VS West Ham; Friday, 29 December at 04:15 GMT +8

Arsenal currently holds the best chance of winning the Premier League title this season, one point ahead of Liverpool and Aston Villa. Their best performance indicates only one defeat in the last ten matches in all competitions. Their return to Emirates Stadium is expected to continue with good games, particularly against West Ham, as they face a similar match.

West Ham has a strong season, currently in 6th position. They have won three out of their last four matches, including a 2-0 win against Manchester United. Their counterattack skills have earned them all three points. They face a top Premier League home team, Manchester United, in a crucial match on Thursday night. David Moyes’ team needs a perfect game to secure points.

Arsenal’s Kai Havertz will miss Thursday’s match due to a fifth yellow card, a significant absence for the German player who has played in every league game this season. Emile Smith Rowe could start instead. Other absentees include Jurrien Timber, Thomas Partey, Takehiro Tomiyasu, and Fabio Vieira.

West Ham has a nearly full squad, with Michail Antonio injured and Nayef Aguerd and Maxwel Cornet questionable for Thursday’s match. Both players could play, but decision will be made closer to matchday.

Predicted lineups:

Goalkeeper: David Raya
Defenders: Ben White, William Saliba, Magalhaes Gabriel, Oleksandr Zinchenko
