WBA Vs ARS Fantasy Team Probable Playing 11 And Match Report: Arsenal strive to make it three wins on the spin for the first time this season.
They were made it huff and puff it out against Brighton but Arsenal did more than enough to hang onto their 1-0 lead on the day. The result saw the club for the first time this season make it two wins in succession, results which have given the club much needed breathing space.
Although the side still has a long road to traverse before it can stabilise a rocking ship, the team has finally managed to quell talk of it being engulfed in the relegation squabble. Easing their way into 15th position, the club will be quietly confident of making it three in a row when it takes on relegation slumped West Brom.
Ripped into shreds by Leeds United the last time around, West Brom continue to find themselves nailed in the bottom three. The club was hammered 5-0 in its foregone outing, a result which quickly brought Allardyce up to speed with the colossal task he’s facing.
WBA Vs ARS Fantasy Probable Winner
West Brom will be massively better today but we don’t envisage them doing enough to salvage anything from the affair with Arsenal easing to a win.

Goal-Keeper
In a West Brom outfit riddled with horrendous displays, Sam Johnstone has emerged as a saving grace. The shot stopper has been unfazed by whatever has been thrown up at him with him pulling off a slew of saves.
Defenders
Going goalless the last time around, West Brom showed why they have a sorry 13 goals to show for their efforts this season. Where they are in torrid form in attack, Arsenal on the other hand pulled off a cleansheet the last time around, one which sees us opt for a trio from the club.
Rob Holding, Kieran Tierney and Hector Bellerin will all be instilled in our team while Darnell Furlong’s ability to rake in the tackles and blocks sees him be our pick from the home side.
Midfielders
Despite being a new entrant, Conor Gallagher has already emerged as the side’s top scorer with the two goals in his kitty. He finds company in the club’s top scorer Matheus Pereira who has emerged with three assists to his name.
Arsenal will also feature a duo, one comprising of Bukayo Saka who has the one goal and one assist in his last two matches. Granit Xhaka’s tenacity after his red card make him the second part of the dup.
Strikers
Alexandre Lacazette was responsible for his side’s only goal the last time around, one which sees him be our first pick from the club. With three goals and one assist, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is his partner.
Captain And Vice-Captain
Those four goal contributions make Pierre our captain while Saka is the vice-captain.
