Sunday’s Premier League action kicks off at the Emirates Stadium where fourth place Arsenal host a West Bromwich Albion side looking for three points that would guarantee their Premier League safety for next season.

Arsene Wenger’s side extended their winning run to three games with victory over Newcastle United last time out, and three points here would guarantee qualification for next season’s Champions League, regardless of Everton’s result against Manchester City in Saturday’s late kick off.

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain has a groin injury and joins fellow England internationals Theo Walcott, Jack Wilshere and Kieran Gibbs on the side-lines, while Bacary Sagna is struggling to overcome a knee problem.

Olivier Giroud is 4.5 (7/2) with most firms to get the first goal of the game ahead of Lukas Podolski, who is a 6.0 (5/1) shot with Bet 365.

The home win can be backed at 1.3 (3/10) with Coral, while West Brom are as highly priced as the 13.0 (12/1) on offer from Bet 365. The draw is a 6.1 (51/10) chance with 888 Sport.

The Baggies beat West Ham United last weekend to move four points clear of the relegation zone, and three points here will ensure they will be in the top flight next season.

However, if Sunderland, Fulham and Cardiff City all fail to win at Manchester United, Stoke City and Newcastle United respectively, they will go in to the game knowing that they are safe.
Gareth McAuley is set to return after recovering from a calf problem which has kept him out of the last two games, though Steven Reid is doubtful and Liam Ridgewell and Zoltan Gera aren’t likely to be fit until next week.

Saido Berahino is 17.0 (16/1) to open the scoring with Bet 365, while Victor Anichebe is a 19.0 (18/1) shot with the same firm.

The sides have already met twice this season, with both games ending in 1-1 draws at The Hawthorns, first in the League Cup in September, with the Gunners eventually winning on penalties and then again in the reverse league fixture.

The 1-1 draw this time around can be backed at 13.0 (12/1) with Bet Victor, while the Arsenal win to nil is priced at 2.25 (5/4) with Sky Bet.
