Arsenal will hope to put the disappointment of getting knocked out of the Europa League behind them when they face West Brom on Sunday.
The Gunners created enough chances to overturn the first-leg deficit, but could not breach Villarreal’s goal on Thursday.
The clash against a struggling West Brom is a must-win for the Gunners, who have been lackluster all season at home.
West Brom still have a faint chance of surviving, but need to win all their remaining four games and hope the teams above them drop points.
Arsenal can still qualify for next season’s Europa League, but will need to start winning their games and be more consistent in the final few weeks of the season.
Arsenal vs West Brom Head-to-head
Arsenal have dominated this fixture over the years, winning it 17 times. West Brom have managed just four wins, while four games have ended as draws.
Considering how poor Arsenal have been on home turf this season, this clash may be West Brom’s best chance to pick up a win and boost their survival hopes.
