The weekend’s Premier League action continues on Sunday when West Ham United host league-leaders Arsenal in a London derby.

Kick-off is at 14:00 BST.

David Moyes makes three changes from last weekend’s 1-0 win over Fulham, as Thilo Kehrer, Lucas Paqueta and Said Benrahma replace Angelo Ogbonna, Pablo Fornals and Danny Ings.

The only survivors from Thursday night in Genk are Vladimir Coufal, Declan Rice and Jarrod Bowen.

As for Arsenal, they make just the one alteration and it’s enforced, as Kieran Tierney comes in for the injured Oleksandr Zinchenko. The 14.1% owned defender misses out as a precaution due to a tight groin.

Elsewhere, Eddie Nketiah is among the substitutes having missed the past month with an ankle problem.

    For everyone who has held Saka for the last couple of gameweeks that miss was so unbelievably obvious.

    As said as Saka got given the ball I was just repeating "he's missing this"...

          It's not a pattern, it's that everyone jumped on Saka as being the best Arsenal choice, he blanks for multiple gameweeks while his colleagues score points.

          Jesus picks the ball up to take the pen and then gives it to Saka.

          What is a typical FPL outcome? A miss.

          Just like Salah missing the first penalty of the season he got after like 18 games or whatever it was.

          Just funny outcomes from players that normally do the opposite.
