Can West Ham Continue Recent Dominance Over Wolves?
1518

There is still plenty to play for in terms of European qualification in the Premier League and this match involves two teams that could still finish in the top six this season.

The game between Wolverhampton Wanderers and West Ham United will be played on the 6th of April at Molineux Stadium. The hosts begin the weekend in 11th place on 42 points while the visitors are in 7th place on 45 points.

Wolves come into the match having been held to a 1-1 draw at Burnley in the Premier League on Tuesday night.

It was Burnley who opened the scoring in the 37th minute but Wolves equalised on the stroke of half time. Neither team could add to their goal in the second half.

The draw at Burnley means Wolves have won only 1 of their last 5 fixtures in all competitions.

The victory came at home over Fulham in the Premier League but there have been defeats against Newcastle United and Aston Villa away in the Premier League plus Coventry City at home in the FA Cup.

Trends show Wolves are not easy to beat on home soil in the league and they are undefeated in 10 of their last 12 home Premier League games.

They have won 4 of their last 6 Premier League matches on home soil but have managed to keep just 3 clean sheets in their 15 most recent home league games.

West Ham make the trip to Molineux Stadium on the back of a 1-1 draw at home with Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League.

It was Spurs who took the lead after only 5 minutes but it took West Ham just 14 minutes to score the equaliser and claim a point.

The draw against Spurs means West Ham are undefeated in 4 of their last 5 games in all competitions.

There was a 5-0 home win over Freiburg in the Europa League plus draws with Burnley and Aston Villa at home in the Premier League. West Ham also tasted a 4-3 defeat at Newcastle United in the league.

The stats show West Ham have won only 1 of their last 5 away Premier League fixtures. They failed to keep a clean sheet in each of those 5 matches but West Ham have won 5 of the last 7 meetings with Wolves in the Premier League.

Team news: Wolves continue without the injured duo of Hwang Hee-Chan and Pedro Neto. They also have doubts over the fitness of Craig Dawson and Jean-Ricner Bellegarde but Matheus Cunha should be fit to start in attack.

West Ham travel without injured goalkeeper Alphonse Areola, so Lukasz Fabianski will start in goal. Edson Alvarez is available again after suspension but there are doubts over the fitness of Nayef Aguerd.

West Ham have enjoyed the better of Wolves in recent games between the teams but our predictive analysis points towards a close match. We expect this game to end level, with both teams scoring.
