Match preview

West Ham welcome Wolves to the London Stadium for round four of the Championship season, looking to kick-start their league campaign after a sluggish opening stretch. The Hammers sit 19th in the standings with two points from three matches (two draws and one defeat), having conceded five goals while keeping zero clean sheets in league competition.

Wolves, in contrast, have hit the ground running following relegation, collecting seven points from a possible nine to sit second in the table. Gary O'Neil's side have been prolific in front of goal, scoring nine times across their first three Championship outings, including four against Stoke City and three away at Preston.

With both sides showing plenty of attacking intent but defensive vulnerabilities—neither team has registered a league clean sheet yet this term—an open, high-tempo contest is on the cards in East London.

Yes + Wolves or Draw
Confidence73%

Yes — 73% confidence

Both teams have scored in 100% of their Championship matches so far this season. West Ham have found the net four times across three matches but conceded in every outing, while Wolves have scored nine goals and conceded four without keeping a single clean sheet. Defensive lapses on both sides make goals at both ends highly probable.

Wolves or Draw — 76% confidence

Wolves enter this fixture in superior league form, having won two and drawn one of their opening three Championship fixtures while scoring nine goals. West Ham are still searching for their first league victory of the campaign after taking two points from three games and losing their only home fixture 2-1 against Charlton. Wolves carrying positive momentum gives them a strong probability of coming away with at least a point.

These two calls are about different parts of the match (both teams to score and double chance), so neither one determines the other. The figure shown is the lower of the two — a combo can never be more likely than its weaker leg.
