West Bromwich Albion holds the key for Arsenal's UEFA Champions League qualification campaign. The Gunners have been struggling in recent times. After playing a goalless draw with Chelsea, they lost to Wigan at the Emirates Stadium and drew against Norwich City at the same venue. Arsene Wenger's men must wake from their slumber if they don't want to miss out on Europe's elite club competition for the first time in over a decade. The first leg of this match ended in a three nil win for Arsenal on 5th November, 2011. Roy Hodgson will hope to finish his West Brom career with a win after he was confirmed as England's new boss earlier in the month. The last meeting between these two sides at The Hawthorns ended in a 2-2 draw in March,2011. If Arsenal should lose this match while Newcastle and Tottenham are able to gran three points each in their respective games, then the Arsenal board might be forced to take some decisive steps on the future of Wenger who is yet to win a trophy in the last seven years.
Peter Odemwingie is capable of creating a big problem for the Arsenal defence. On the other hand, Robin Van Persie can erase Thierry Henry's 30 league goal record if he can score against Roy Hodgson's men on Sunday.
Our prediction: West Bromwich 3-2 Arsenal
