Arsenal still have hopes that they can win the title. With 13 matchdays to go before the end of the season, the Gunners still have a realistic chance of winning the Premier League title. However, given the current deficit, each of the remaining games in the second half of the season has the character of a final. This also applies to the upcoming derby against West Ham. Arsenal have not lost a single home game in the current league competition and are the second strongest home team in the league. Mikel Arteta's team should not have too much trouble against the out-of-form guests from East London this weekend and should bag three more points in the league. For the guests there is no danger of relegation yet as West Ham United still has a comfortable points cushion. Before Saturday's derby against Arsenal, the Hammers are ten points away from the 18th place in the English top flight.
