Match Overview: Finally, we’re set for another thrilling round in the Premier League, where the 30th match week pits two teams apart by just 4 points against each other. The match kicks off at 13:30, so make sure you don't miss it. West Ham is currently sitting in 7th place with 44 points, trailing the 5th positioned team by 9 points. That coveted 5th spot is crucial as it secures a berth in next season's European competitions. However, West Ham is only 3 points behind the Red Devils in 6th place. On the other hand, Newcastle United is languishing in 10th place, which has certainly left their fans feeling disappointed. They've managed to gather 40 points with a goal difference of 59:48. As a silver lining, they are just a point ahead of Chelsea, which has been the biggest letdown this season. It’s worth noting that Newcastle has a game in hand compared to West Ham. Over their last six away matches, West Ham has only managed one victory (1 win, 4 losses), with their last win coming four weeks ago against Everton (3:1). Currently, West Ham is in slightly better shape than Newcastle, which has claimed just two wins against three defeats in their last five outings across all competitions. Their most recent encounter ended in a 2:2 draw. Players to keep an eye on in this match include Alexander Isak, who has found the net twice since returning from his groin injury last month, scoring two goals in the last fixture against Newcastle. Meanwhile, Mohammed Kudus is also in fine form. Notably, Newcastle has been the most prolific team in the Premier League at home this season, netting the most opening goals (12 out of 14 matches).
Bet odds: PokerStars Betting Bookmakers are offering odds of 1.85 for a home win, while a draw is valued at 4.20, and a West Ham victory is priced at 3.80.

Match Overview: Ahead of us is an exhilarating derby at 17:30, showcasing the top and third teams of the Premier League. The teams are separated by just one point on the league table, with Arsenal leading the pack with 64 points, while City trails closely in third with 63 points. Liverpool is also in the title chase, sitting at 64 points and will be hoping for a draw. We'll just have to see if it ends in a stalemate. Both teams are in fantastic form, particularly Arsenal, who has racked up five consecutive wins in the league. Their last match in the Champions League saw them face Porto at home, progressing only after a penalty shootout. The Gunners cannot afford a performance like that today against a much stronger City side. City has won four out of their last five matches across all competitions, with a single draw against Liverpool resulting in a 1:1 finish. Arsenal and City last squared off in the 8th round of this season’s Premier League, where Arsenal took the victory at home with a narrow 1:0, courtesy of a late winner from Martinelli in the 86th minute. There's a chance Saka could be available this weekend, but Arsenal fans shouldn't get their hopes up too high. The absence of the 22-year-old would certainly pose a challenge for Arteta as Gabriel Martinelli recovers from a hamstring injury sustained against Everton. Additionally, City will be dealing with the suspension of Rodri, though the return of John Stones is a welcome boost for Guardiola. We’ll have to wait until Saturday or Sunday for the definitive starting eleven. City has not lost to Arsenal in their last 9 meetings at home, and their home record this season stands impressively at 10 wins, 4 draws, and no losses. Erling Haaland remains City’s top scorer with 18 goals, while Bukayo Saka has found the back of the net for Arsenal 13 times.
