West Ham United are in dire straits in the Premier League, with relegation now a serious threat heading into the final weeks of the season.

To kick off their last three, they welcome league leaders Arsenal to the London Stadium.

The Gunners are fresh off the back of securing their spot in the Champions League final, with Bukayo Saka’s first-half goal securing a 2-1 aggregate win against Atletico Madrid on Tuesday.

With the title up for grabs in the coming weeks, Arsenal will be looking to continue their form as they face a struggling West Ham.

Nuno Espirito Santo’s side sit 18th in the standings, and are in need of a massive sprint to the end if they are to secure their spot in the top flight.

How to watch West Ham vs Arsenal

In a match between two sides at opposite ends of the table, Sunday’s clash carries serious ramifications.

Naturally, Sunday’s clash has been selected for TV coverage, with the action on show for the nation to keep an eye on as the race for both the title and survival continues.

Those not in attendance at the London Stadium on Sunday will be able to watch the match unfold via Sky Sports Premier League, with Ultra HD options available with the appropriate hardware on Sky Sports Main Event.

Alongside this, viewing options will be available on the move through the Sky Go app and Sky Sports website – available to subscribers in the UK.

Radio stations across the country will also provide live coverage, including BBC Radio 5 Live and talkSPORT.

West Ham have left themselves in need of a huge result

After climbing out of the bottom three for the first time this year, the Hammers have dropped off again as of late.

The actual performance at Brentford last week did not match the 3-0 scoreline, though the simple fact of the matter is that the defeat has left them in need of a huge result against the champions-elect of both England and Europe.

West Ham have been able to turn a corner in 2026, after Nuno’s side seemed destined for the drop at the start of it.

However, they have just not done quite enough to ever pull away from trouble, while others have found their form at the wrong time from a Hammers perspective.

Points have been dropped against both Crystal Palace and Brentford in recent weeks – a haul from these two would have left them in a completely different situation now.

Welcoming Arsenal to the London Stadium, the Irons desperately need something, or they risk falling four points behind Tottenham, with the Lilywhites facing Leeds United on Monday.
