West Ham vs. Arsenal lineups, anticipated starting 11, confirmed team updates and injuries: Gabriel considered doubtful.

 

Arsenal travels across London to take on West Ham United in a Premier League encounter on November 30.

 

Since returning from the November international break, Mikel Arteta’s squad has shown renewed vigor, highlighted by a commanding 3-0 victory over Nottingham Forest last weekend.

 

This win marked just the beginning of an impressive week for the Gunners, who followed it up with a resounding 5-1 triumph in the UEFA Champions League against Sporting CP.

 

A win at the London Stadium would elevate Arsenal to second place in the standings, ahead of Liverpool’s match against Manchester City the following day.

 

Meanwhile, the Hammers are buoyed by a confidence-boosting 2-0 victory over Newcastle United in their previous match.

 

West Ham vs. Arsenal lineups, projected starting 11, team updates.

 

West Ham welcomes back key midfielder Edson Alvarez after a two-match suspension, and he is expected to return directly to Julen Lopetegui’s lineup.

 

Jean-Clair Todibo had to leave the match against Newcastle due to injury and is likely to be sidelined, with Kostas Mavropanos ready to take his place.

 

Niclas Fullkrug continues to be unavailable due to a calf injury, and Mohamed Kudus is serving the final match of a five-game suspension.

 

West Ham’s anticipated lineup (4-2-3-1, from right to left): Fabianski (GK) — Wan-Bissaka, Mavropanos, Kilman, Emerson — Soucek, Alvarez — Bowen, Paqueta, Summerville — Antonio

 

Injuries: Fullkrug (calf), Todibo (muscle)

 

Suspension: Kudus

 

Arteta has confirmed that key center-back Gabriel had to leave the pitch due to a muscle injury during the final moments of Arsenal’s victory in Lisbon.

 

His condition will be evaluated prior to the match.

 

Should he be unavailable, Arteta will face another setback in his preferred defensive lineup, as Ben White is already out until 2025 following surgery, and Takehiro Tomiyasu is still recovering from a knee injury.

 

Arsenal’s projected lineup (4-3-3, from right to left): Raya (GK) — Timber, Saliba, Gabriel, Calafiori — Odegaard, Partey, Rice — Saka, Havertz, Martinelli

 

Injuries: White (knee), Tomiyasu (knee), Gabriel (doubtful)

 

Suspensions: None.
