West Ham vs Wolves â Match preview and team news
West Ham United welcome Wolverhampton Wanderers to the London Stadium on Friday for a pivotal survival clash.
The Hammers sit 18th in the Premier League after a recent loss to Aston Villa. Nuno EspĂrito Santoâs side also suffered a heartbreaking FA Cup exit against Leeds United last weekend. However, they remain just one point from safety. Significantly, West Ham have won their last five home league meetings against Wolves.
Wolves arrive in East London sitting at the bottom of the table but enjoying a recent resurgence. Rob Edwardsâ men have only lost four of their last 13 matches. They recently secured impressive victories over Aston Villa and Liverpool at Molineux.
Notably, only the top three sides have conceded fewer goals than Wolves since January. They now aim to complete their first league double over the Hammers since 2020.
