West Ham travel to the Emirates Stadium to face Arsenal in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon, and David Moyes is expected to make just one change from the side that drew with Stoke City last time out.

The Hammers almost suffered a damaging loss to their relegation rivals at the London Stadium when Joe Hart’s mistake allowed Peter Crouch to steal in and open the scoring.

The England goalkeeper failed to hold a low shot from Xherdan Shaqiri before Crouch was able to stick a leg in and slot home before he could recover.

West Ham however managed a reply through rarely-seen striker Andy Carroll, with the big man striking a volley that went low past Jack Butland into the net.

That point was a valuable one for the Hammers who moved to 35 points with four games remaining, while Carroll’s equaliser also condemned Stoke to another lacklustre result in their quest for survival.

Their trip to Arsenal poses different problems however, with the Gunners sure to be fired up after Arsene Wenger announced he would step down as manager after 22 years at the conclusion of this campaign.

This is Futbol have selected the expected West Ham XI v Arsenal, including just one change from that side that drew with Stoke last weekend.
