EPL table: Arsenal go second with 5-2 win over West Ham

Arsenal have gone second in the Premier League table, following a 5-2 win at West Ham in Saturday’s late kick-off.

The Gunners are the only title challengers that played today, with most of the big games scheduled for tomorrow.

And they took full advantage by claiming maximum points at the London Stadium.

Gabriel Magalhaes opened the scoring from a corner-kick, before Leandro Trossard tapped in Bukayo Saka’s low cross.

Arsenal captain, Martin Odegaard, stroked home a penalty, before Kai Havertz ran through to make it 4-0.

The hosts fought back with two goals from Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Emerson Palmeri. But Saka scored again from the spot.

Mikel Arteta’s men now have 25 points, six behind Liverpool who host Manchester City on Sunday.
