West Ham vs. Wolves Prediction, Preview for EPL – Friday, April 10
West Ham is hoping to close the EPL season on a high note to avoid being relegated for the first time since the 2010-2011 season. Both Wolves and West Ham have experienced seasons to forget; however, the two clubs have improved since the turn of the calendar year.
Despite having already clinched a spot in the relegation zone, Wolves have played their best football of the season over the past two months. Since the start of February, Wolverhampton has lost just two of their seven EPL games. For context, the West Midlands club has 20 losses on the season, meaning they lost 18 games over a five-month period.
To make things more interesting, Wolves recent run of good form has come against some of the top teams in England. Wolves drew with first-place Arsenal back in mid-February, followed by defeating Liverpool and Aston Villa in back-to-back weeks. Today's match vs. West Ham will be the club's first game since March 16 due to the international break and tournament play. Will Rob Edwards' club still be playing to the best of their ability after so much time off?
The Hammers will be the first opponent to test the theory of potential rusty play from the Wolves. West Ham, on the other hand, has played two games since March 16, including their most recent match on April 2, which saw the London club eliminated from the FA Cup by Leeds via penalties. West Ham’s miraculous comeback saw Nuno Espirito Santo’s club score two stoppage-time goals to tie the game in the 96th minute.
After being eliminated from the FA Cup, the sole focus of West Ham will be staying up in the English top flight. With eight games remaining this season, West Ham desperately needs a win on Friday, and this is their only remaining opponent below them in the standings. These teams met earlier this year in Molineux Stadium, where Wolves battered the Hammers 3-0 in front of their home fans.
Now, West Ham will have a chance to return the favor in front of their home supporters, who haven’t had much to cheer for all season. West Ham has won just three games in the London Stadium this season, with the last home win in the EPL coming in January.
Will Wolves spoil West Ham’s chances of escaping relegation? Or can the Hammers find a way to escape a demotion after a disappointing season?
