Martin Odegaard's return has given Arsenal a big boost as they chase Liverpool in the standings, and the Gunners should not let three points get away vs. underachieving West Ham this Saturday.

Liverpool is getting away, so Arsenal can't accept any other result than a win as they travel to East London to face West Ham this Saturday.

Arsenal returned to winning last weekend, after three dismal performances saw them lose two and draw one of their last three matches. They now sit in fourth place, nine points behind Premier League leaders Liverpool.

Here are my West Ham vs. Arsenal predictions and free betting picks for Saturday, November 30.

My analysis

Martin Odegaard's return from injury has injected fresh life into Arsenal's performances. Since his comeback to the first 11 on November 10, Arsenal have won two games in emphatic style, 3-0 against Forest in the Premier League and 5-1 in Lisbon against Sporting in the Champions League. They also drew 1-1 at Stamford Bridge against Chelsea.

The mood is different at West Ham. They won 2-0 in Newcastle on Monday, but manager Julen Lopetegui is still under threat. Each misstep could end his tenure in charge of the team.

West Ham's results and style of play have been below par since the start of the campaign. The club's goal for this season was to challenge for a European spot, but they sit nervously at the wrong end of the standings.

Arsenal have scored at least two goals in five of their last six away games against West Ham in all competitions and look well-equipped to do it again on Saturday. I will go for the moneyline, but do consider goals for your parlay.

West Ham vs Arsenal same-game parlay (SGP)

Arsenal to win

Arsenal Over 1.5 goals

Martin Odegaard Over 0.5 assists

Odegaard assisted goals for Arsenal in his previous two outings, against Chelsea and Forest. He is hungry to play and add numbers to his injury-stricken season debut. He should command in midfield and the probability of him setting up the explosive Arsenal attacking power in order to get goals is not to be ignored.

There have been Over 2.5 goals in the last six West Ham home matches against Arsenal. The Gunners have netted at least twice in their last six trips to West Ham's stadium, so they will look to keep those numbers counting.
