THE LOWDOWN
WOLVES
- Wolves were pegged back by Aston Villa after taking the lead away from home and a point leaves them still inside the bottom three, although only a point from safety.
- There are no changes on the injury front for Wolves, but following his midweek goal in the Carabao Cup, Julen Lopetegui could reward striker Raul Jimenez with a Premier League start over Diego Costa.
WEST HAM
- Defeat here for West Ham would see them drop into the relegation places with Wolves currently just a single point below them in the table.
- David Moyes has multiple headaches to deal with on the injury front with plenty of players doubtful among his squad such as Vladimir Coufal and Gianluca Scamacca.

THE PREDICTION
West Ham will know the consequences of defeat here at Molineux. A loss will see them drop into the bottom three and with that in mind, you’d expect Moyes to prioritise defensive stability, ensuring that his side do not lose the game first and foremost, before thinking about potentially winning it. This may lead to a drab affair when you also factor in Wolves’ attacking frailties and them being the lowest scorers in this season’s Premier League. Therefore, back under 2.5 goals to be scored regardless of the final outcome
TIP: UNDER 2.5 GOALS
