According to the confirmed lineups, Calafiori starts at left back as Arsenal look to maintain their title charge against a West Ham side who begin the day in the relegation zone.

West Ham vs Arsenal – Confirmed Lineups
West Ham XI: Hermansen; Wan-Bissaka, Disasi, Mavropanos, Todibo, Diouf; Fernandes, Soucek; Bowen, Summerville; Castellanos.
Arsenal XI: Raya; White, Saliba, Gabriel, Calafiori; Rice, Lewis-Skelly; Saka, Eze, Trossard; Gyokeres.
The stakes could hardly be higher at both ends of the table.
Arsenal arrive knowing that victory would put them one step closer to the title, while West Ham are scrapping for Premier League survival and will be desperate to cause an upset in front of their home supporters.
Calafiori started both the league win against Fulham and the midweek Champions League semi-final win against Atletico.
