It's so hard to know what to expect this weekend, because so many teams have not played for a few weeks, and they will have lost any momentum.
Wolves know they are down but they have definitely improved under Rob Edwards, who has had some decent results after a difficult start. They are one of the teams who have been on a good run, but their last match was on 16 March.
Seeing West Ham's FA Cup tie with Leeds go to extra-time last weekend was the worst-case scenario for them, with a massive game like this on the horizon.
They obviously lost on penalties in the end, and their league form has not been great either, with only one win in their past six games.
That's why they are still in the bottom three at the moment but I think they will be out of the relegation zone on Friday night.
Wolves have beaten West Ham twice already this season, at Molineux in the league and the Carabao Cup, but this time I am going for a Hammers win.
All the pressure is on them here, but they are at home and Jarrod Bowen will probably be the player who makes the difference.
Sutton's prediction: 2-1
