Betting tips for Arsenal vs West Ham 22.04.2018

After announcing the departure of Arsene Wenger at the end of this season, the Gunners receive at the Emirates Stadium to West Ham in game of the 35th day of the Premier League, with the head set on their European tie against Atleti.

The Arsenal occupies the 6th position in the Premier League, adding 54 points in the 33 days played, with a balance of 16 wins, 6 draws and 11 losses after defeating at home to Southampton (3-2) and falling in Newcastle.

After beating CSKA Moscow in the first leg of the Europa League quarter-finals, the Gunners fight to maintain a position that allows them to play in Europe next season by way of the top-6 ranking in the league, adding three victories in the last three games they have played.

Valuable winners of the FA Cup and Community Shield, the Gunners miss not playing in the Champions League for the first time in two decades. Last weekend, the Gunners fell for the first time in the 3rd round of the FA Cup (since Wenger is on the team) after losing 4-2 to Nottingham Forest. However, last week he got into the final of the EFL Cup by eliminating Chelsea in the semifinals.

The West Ham had the worst possible start this season, being bottom after the first three days, which did not add a point, conceding 10 goals and only 2. The victory against Huddersfield Town (2-0) and the draw in their visit to West Bromwich (0-0) gave air to the Hammers, who lost at home to Tottenham (2-3) before winning at Swansea by the minimum (1-0), tied in their visit to the Burnley and they were thrashed at home by the newly promoted Brighton & Hove Albion (0-3) the following weekend. The draw against Crystal Palace (2-2) had no continuation, losing at London Stadium to Liverpool (1-4), a loss that cost Slaven Bilic the spot. Already last year, the Hammers had a bad season, just coinciding with his move to London Stadium. The Balkan maintained his job thanks to the fact that the team ended up avoiding getting into relegation places.

Already with David Moyes on the bench, West Ham lost on Vicarage Road, against Watford (2-0), drew at home with Leicester (1-1), was thrashed at Goodison Park (4-0) and lost by minimum before the City (2-1, with Sterling's goal in the discount), initiating a clear improvement after defeating the current champion, Chelsea (1-0), draw against the Gunners at home (0-0) and thrashing at Stoke City (0-3). In the last six games, the team has tied at 1 on three occasions, losing at Brighton and winning at Huddersfield Town (1-4) and Watford at home (2-0), before being beaten consecutively by Liverpool (4-1), Swansea (4-1) and Burnley (0-3) before beating Southampton (0-3), draw against Chelsea and Stoke in the last two games.

Former Austrian striker Marko Arnautovic and Mexican striker Javier 'Chicharito' Hernandez have been the two main reinforcements of the Hammers in this summer market, in which they have received two of the Manchester City classics in the last decade: the goalkeeper international Joe Hart, on loan this season, and former captain, Pablo Zabaleta.



The locals come in good time but they will not risk to the Hammers, who play the descent and must score.
