Arsenal Team News

Arsenal are currently without Thomas Partey (thigh), Fabio Vieira (groin), Jurrien Timber (knee), and Takehiro Tomiyasu (calf), although there is hope that the latter two will be available for Arsenal's FA Cup third-round match against Liverpool on January 7.

Due to suspension, Kai Havertz will not play against West Ham. In his place, Jorginho, Martin Odegaard, and former Hammer Declan Rice could form a midfield triangle.

West Ham Team News

In the victory over Man United, neither Nayef Aguerd nor Maxwel Cornet were healthy enough to play.

Lukasz Fabianski, another former Gunner, should be starting on the bench with former Arsenal defender Dinos Mavropanos.
