Prediction: West Ham 1-2 Wolves
While the hosts boast strong historic home dominance in this fixture, their current defensive frailties are likely to catch up with them. The London side struggle significantly with avoiding individual errors and defending against skillful opponents.
This plays directly into the hands of a clinical Wolves side, whose primary strengths lie in finishing scoring chances and creating opportunities through individual skill. Expect the visitors' superior attacking threat to guide them to a narrow victory on the road.
