Premier League: West Brom v Arsenal match preview West Brom will look to boost their outside hopes of a Europa League spot as they host a resurgent Arsenal side in this three o'clock kick-off. The Baggies will be looking to dent the Gunners" hopes of qualification for Europe's premier competition for the 16th straight year, as they continue to pursue their London rivals Tottenham and Chelsea. Santi Cazorla and co will be given a stern test in the West Midlands, against a West Brom defence which have conceded just 14 goals at home this season, a figure only bettered by Man City and Chelsea. With three wins and a draw in their last six outings, the Baggies will want to keep the pressure on Liverpool as they seek Europa League qualification to put a cap on what has been an impressive season for Steve Clarke's team. The Gunners managed a straightforward victory the last time the two teams met in December, and West Brom will be counting on Romelu Lukaku and the rest of the West Brom strikeforce to cause more problems to an unreliable Arsenal defence. The 19-year-old striker has impressed at The Hawthorns this season and is the club's top scorer in the league with 13 goals. Of course, the Belgian international is on loan with the Baggies from Chelsea and could do his parent club a few favours by putting the Arsenal defence to the sword. With five wins in their last six games however, Arsenal will be confident of victory. Theo Walcott isn't yet ready to return, so Gervinho will be looking to score in his third consecutive game for the Gunners, while Youssouf Mulumbu will definitely miss out for West Brom after his comical sending-off last weekend.
