Arsenal will be facing West Ham at the Emirates on Thursday night, but they will be without at least five key players for the match, including Kai Havertz who is serving a suspension. The Hammers have a history of success against the Gunners, most recently beating them 3-1 in the Carabao Cup. Both teams will be fielding their strongest line-ups for this Premier League clash, although Arsenal will be missing Thomas Partey, Takehiro Tomiyasu, Fabio Vieira, and Jurrien Timber. West Ham will also be without Michail Antonio and Nayef Aguerd. The match will be important for both teams’ standings in the league, with West Ham looking to solidify their position in the top six and Arsenal vying for the top spot. The rivalry between the two teams has been heightened by the presence of Declan Rice, who almost joined Arsenal before pushing for a move to West Ham.
