Arsenal and West Ham United are playing at Emirates Stadium on Tuesday in the English Premier League to finish the week and the match comes streaming from the NBC sports Live Extra website and has the Gunners looking to continue strong in the EPL after their FA Cup win over the weekend and Arsene Wenger's side now has the chance to win that final and to qualify for the Champions League again.
The weekend saw a thrilling win in the FA Cup semifinals against Wigan after the Gunners won through a shootout at Wembley Stadium and now they are into the finals for the Cup on May 17 and that will be against Hull City.

The team comes in after penalties win against Wigan and now they have five more matches in the Premier League to get things done and Wenger said qualifying for the Champions League is very important for the team and they are right in the mix at the top of things and that is why a win on Tuesday is very important. The team comes in after a loss to Everton before the match against Wigan and before that the ream had a draw against Man City, a draw against Swansea and a huge loss against Chelsea and before that they won against the Spurs and now they need to start turning things around.
Olivier Giroud and Aaron Ramsey have been the leading scorers for the team and now they need to get their swagger and momentum back, as they once were the leaders of the EPL and now have fallen back. The loss to Everton was tough and now they can jump ahead in the table standings with a win on Tuesday and now the Gunners can concentrate on getting back into the UCL from the EPL as they prepare for the Fa Cup in a month.

The team heads to Carrow Road for the final EPL game of the season against Norwich and then they will play Hull again in the FA finals. Liverpool comes into the week just ahead of Chelsea and they are nearing an EPL title, while Man City is next ahead of Everton and Arsenal is looking to move back over into the fourth spot with a win, as they are now just two points back after missing the schedule this weekend.
West Ham comes into the match after a loss against Liverpool and before that they won on the road against Sunderland. The team plays against Crystal Palace next at Upton Park and then they face West Brom on the road before a return home against Tottenham and they finish the season at the Etihad against Manchester City and that match still could have EPL ramifications.
