West Ham vs Arsenal LIVE: Premier League result, final score and reaction
The Gunners resume their quest for the Premier League title looking for a win after drawing at Liverpool last weekend
Arsenal still have the title in their own hands, just about, but they’ve reached a worrying point where they can’t seem to hold onto anything - not their nerve, not a 2-0 lead.
That’s what the true pressure of a Premier League race does, as the leaders just stopped playing. It means they’ve stopped winning, as Arsenal squandered a two-goal lead for another 2-2 for the second successive week. This time, it was away to a West Ham United who had previously been on poor form, rather than Liverpool who had previously been on poor form.
Whatever about the points and how it leaves Arsenal just four ahead of City with a game more played, the great question is whether you can afford to do this in this manner against Pep Guardiola’s side.
We will bring you all the action and updates from today's game in the live blog below:

West Ham get all 10 outfield players behind the ball as Arsenal build. White's cross is flicked away by Coufal but the Gunners keep it alive… only for Fabianksi to claim the second delivery! The hosts are one minute away from claiming a valuable point!

The corner is lofted into the area... but it's an Arsenal head that meets the ball is it flicks away from the danger zone!

Gabriel concedes a corner on the left, and a huge roar goes up from the home fans. Arsenal have so far failed to create a clear chance to win it 3-2, can the Hammers do so from this set-piece?

Arsenal have every outfield player forward for the deep free-kick… which is tamely headed into Fabianski's arms by Holding!

Odegaard makes way now, with Nketiah on as Arteta goes for broke.
