The Gunners, meanwhile, will be hoping to continue their impressive run of form after winning each of their last four competitive matches.
Match preview
After enduring a nine-game winless league run, West Ham were level on five points with basement side Bristol City ahead of last Sunday's clash between the two relegation rivals.
As it proved, the Hammers enjoyed a successful outing, edging out the Robins via a 2-1 scoreline thanks to goals from Honoka Hayaashi and Viviane Asseyi.
Buoyed from their second league win of the season, West Ham will now turn their attention to Sunday's tricky fixture, where they will have the chance to claim consecutive WSL victories for the first time since October 2022.
While they will be dreaming of collecting all three points, they would certainly be content holding the Gunners to a draw, especially as they have lost each of their last four home league games.
In fact, West Ham have failed to win any of their previous 12 WSL home matches (D4, L8) since beating Leicester City in November 2022.
Arsenal will carry significant momentum into Sunday's encounter after putting together a four-game winning run across all competitions.
The most recent of those victories took place last weekend when the Gunners secured a 2-0 away win over Liverpool following second-half efforts from Vivianne Miedema and Caitlin Foord.
Having won nine, drawn one and lost two of their 12 league matches, Arsenal head into the weekend in third place with three points separating them from leaders Chelsea.
They will want to keep the pressure on their title rivals by claiming a victory on Sunday, and they may fancy their chances of collecting maximum points after winning 11 of their 12 WSL games against West Ham.
However, Jonas Eidevall's side will be wary of the fact they were held to a goalless draw in last season's away clash with the Hammers.
