How West Ham United could line up against Arsenal

By Ben Knapton, Senior Reporter | 19 March 2021

Sports Mole takes an in-depth look at how West Ham United could line up for their Premier League clash with Arsenal on Sunday afternoon.

West Ham United manager David Moyes will be boosted by the return of Jesse Lingard for Sunday's Premier League London derby with Arsenal.

The Manchester United loanee was ineligible to face his parent club last weekend, but the England international, who has struck four times in seven starts against Arsenal, is now set to take his rightful place in the starting lineup.

Lingard should once again be joined by Jarrod Bowen and Michail Antonio in the Hammers' attack, while Said Benrahma and Manuel Lanzini look set to battle it out for the final spot in the attacking quartet, and the Argentine could get the nod.

Pablo Fornals is in contention to start if he manages to shake off a muscular problem in time, but Andriy Yarmolenko's knee problem is expected to keep him out until after the international break.

Moyes quickly reverted to his tried-and-tested four-man defence after starting with a three at Old Trafford did not pay dividends, and a change in formation sees Mark Noble and Ben Johnson's spots in the starting lineup at risk, with both men expected to drop out this week.

Ever-presents Tomas Soucek and Declan Rice will provide the stability in the engine room, while Moyes is unlikely to consider dropping Craig Dawson despite his own goal at Old Trafford last weekend.

West Ham United possible starting lineup:
Fabianski; Coufal, Dawson, Diop, Cresswell; Rice, Soucek; Bowen, Lanzini, Lingard; Antonio
