(Reuters) - The Europa League is Arsenal's priority as the club aim to seal qualification for next season's Champions League by winning the tournament, manager Arsene Wenger said as he referred to Sunday's West Ham United domestic fixture as "preparation".

Europe's second tier competition is Arsenal's only real hope of securing Champions League football after a poor league season has left them 14 points behind fourth-placed Tottenham Hotspur in sixth position with five games remaining.
