West Ham vs Wolves Prediction – Premier League Prediction & Betting Tips 09/12/2024
West Ham vs Wolves Premier League Prediction Match Details
West Ham United host Wolverhampton Wanderers at the London Stadium on Monday night in the final match of round 15. The match is crucial for both under-pressure managers.
West Ham Preview & Form
West Ham’s struggle under head coach Julen Lopetegui continues as the Hammers have lost each of their last two league games in a row and conceded eight goals in those defeats. Under pressure, Lopetegui saw his side hammered 3-1 in their midweek clash at the King Power Stadium, and a further defeat in this match could potentially mean the end of the road for the Spanish tactician. The Hammers have already endured seven defeats so far in the league, and they sit 14th in the league standings with 15 points earned.
The Hammers have only produced two home wins this season from their opening seven games. Julen Lopetegui’s side are winless in their last two home games, with their last home game ending in a 5-2 defeat by Arsenal, with all the goals being scored in the first half of the match. Their defense has looked poor, having conceded 13 goals in their last six home games.
Wolves Preview & Form
Wolves are also struggling with form since the start of the new campaign as they found themselves sitting in the relegation zone. The Wanderers have only managed to secure two league victories this season while suffering defeats nine times, leaving head coach Gary O’Neill also in danger of losing his job if he fails to produce positive results. Gary O’Neil’s men suffered their second consecutive defeat in a row in their midweek clash at Goodison Park, where they were beaten 4-0 by struggling Everton. One major concern for English tacticians has been defensive duty, as his team has the worst defense in the league this season, having conceded 36 goals from their opening 14 matches. However, they have been consistent in terms of finding the back of the net, having scored a total of 22 goals this season.
The Wanderers have also struggled with their away games this season, having managed to get only one win this season. Their 4-1 victory at the Craven Cottagers against Fulham last month is their only away success this season. However, they have consistently produced goals, with each of their last six matches ending in over 3.5 goals.
