Arsenal will host West Ham at the Emirates Stadium on Boxing Day in a Premier League encounter.
The Gunners are at the top of the table with 37 points from 14 matches. They have a five-point lead over Manchester City and will look to extend that when they go up against the Hammers. Arsenal have won their last 10 Premier League home games on Boxing Day, and are unbeaten in their last 13 at home on that date since a 2-0 loss against Nottingham Forest in 1987.
West Ham are currently in 16th spot having lost their final three games before the World Cup break. If they go down again on Monday night, the pressure may begin to mount on Moyes.

Gabriel Jesus and Emile Smith Rowe are both out for the Gunners for this game, as are Takehiro Tomiyasu, Oleksandr Zinchenko, Reiss Nelson and William Saliba.

Whereas on Saliba he said: "Let's see. We have the data of what he's done in training and in terms of the actual minutes. When he gets back, we'll make the decision."
