# Gallery: Five ways West Ham can overcome Arsenal

West Ham United travel to north London this Saturday to face Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal in the Premier League.

The Hammers go into the game after a [morale-boosting victory](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/51595061) over Southampton at the London Stadium last weekend.

Jarrod Bowen, Michail Antonio and Sebastien Haller all found the net to help the team to a 3-1 victory, lifting them [out of the relegation zone](https://www.premierleague.com/tables) on goal difference.

As for the Gunners, they come into the game after progressing into the quarter-finals of the FA Cup by[beating Portsmouth](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/51697793) on Monday night.

The last time the two London clubs met in the league, the Gunners secured a [3-1 victory](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/50625463) after goals from Gabriel Martinelli, Nicolas Pepe and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, marking the club’s first victory under interim manager Freddie Ljungberg.

The Hammers will be keen to avoid a repeat of that performance and result and will need to do a few things well to ensure they get a positive result.

Apart from the obvious (score goals and don’t concede), we’ve listed five things the Hammers may need to do to overcome Arsenal.
