Arsenal

The London club in the last round of the championship played successfully on the road against Newcastle, beating the latter with a score of 2:0. Perhaps, the Gunners gave too much strength in this match with the Magpies, because the most important match of the season ended unsuccessfully for them this week. As part of the Europa League, Arsenal hosted Villarreal and could not find an approach to the goal of the Spaniards. The 0:0 draw left Mikel Arteta's charges behind the European Cup. The first game ended with the victory of the “yellow submarine” with a score of 2:1.

Thus, the season for Arsenal has clearly not been chosen. The chances of making it to the European competition through the championship are negligible. The Gunners are now in ninth place in the championship standings. They have 49 points on their balance sheet. Even from the sixth Tottenham, they are seven points behind. One of the reasons for the failure in the current championship is the weak performance of Arsenal in the second half of the championship. So, in the last 14 rounds, Mikel Arteta's wards have won only five times, while they have never won twice in a row during this period.

We also note that in the last home games Arsenal looked weak. In five previous matches, the Gunners managed to lose to Everton (0:1), Manchester City (0:1) and Liverpool (0:3), ended in a draw with Fulham (1:1) and beat Tottenham (2:1). In general, in 17 home games in the current championship, the London club won only six times, lost seven matches and drew four.

Midfielder Granit Jaka and defender David Luiz will not play in this match due to injuries.

West Bromwich Albion

In the last stretch of the season, the Blackbirds are desperately clinging to points, although West Brom has practically no chance of maintaining their registration. In 11 previous rounds, Sam Allardyes' players lost only three times to Everton (0:1), Crystal Palace (0:1) and Leicester City (0:3). However, they won the same number of times against Brighton (1:0), “Chelsea” (5:2) and “Southampton” (3:0) and five draws during this period filled the club's piggy bank poorly.

At the moment, West Bromwich occupies the penultimate line in the Premier League standings. Sam Allardyce's team has 26 points and is ten points behind the saving 17th line.

On the road, the Blackbirds earned points in only seven of 17 matches in the current championship, having two wins and five draws, losing ten times at the same time.

Due to injuries, defender Branislav Ivanovic and midfielder Ainsley Maitland-Niles will miss the match. Questionable is Robert Snodgrass. So, what is the soccer bet prediction for today?
