Seventeenth meets 18th in this evening's Premier League contest at the London Stadium, as West Ham United host fellow strugglers Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Bruno Lage can be slightly encouraged by the fact that his side boast the joint-best defensive record on the road so far, being one of the five teams to have conceded just three goals in away match but the visitors have a gone a miserable seven Premier League away games without a win since prevailing at Everton in March. Wolves are dangling just above the dotted line in 17th place and travel to the London Stadium still waiting for their first away win of the new Premier League season. A tally of just two defeats from their last seven outings, in all competitions may look good on paper, but football matches are not played on paper, and West Ham now set out to end a six-game winless streak at the London Stadium in the the Premier League- not since 2003 have they endured a longer such run.
David Moyes' men have been unable to get going in the Premier League in 2022/23, with just one win in their first seven outings. Their most recent fixture ...

Costa, who has not played a competitive match since leaving Atletico Mineiro in January, might only be fit enough for a place on the bench. Only the three relegated clubs scored fewer goals in 2021/22, and Bruno Lage’s charges have drawn a blank in a majority of their seven matches so far this season.
Minute-by-minute report: Will the goal-shy clubs find their shooting boots in Saturday's late kick-off? Join Scott Murray.
The ball takes a huge deflection and drops to Ait-Nouri, free near the left-hand corner of the six-yard box. It’s tapped to Jonny, who attempts to release Semedo down the wing, but clumsily clanks out for a goal kick. Bowen enters the box and takes a shot. But his shot, from the left-hand corner of the six-yard box, bounces harmlessly across the face of goal and out for a goal kick. The ball balloons up off a defender and drops towards Bowen, just inside the box on the right. Kehrer’s clearance is dismal, the ball dropping to Traore on the edge of the D. 47 min: Ait-Nouri advances down the left and pulls back for Moutinho, who has time and space to shoot … Wolves try to respond immediately, winning a corner down the right, but when Guedes gets the ball at his feet, he dallies and the chance to shoot is gone. But he needs to get a level of fitness to get used to the Podence returns the ball with a whip towards the bottom left. He enters the box and aims a curler towards the top left. We suffered without the ball, we knew that, but we’re a tough group to break down, and you saw the chances we had on the break.

As for the team news, West Ham boss David Moyes makes three changes to the side that started the 1-0 defeat at Everton in Gameweek 8. There is a bit of interest from a Fantasy Premier League (FPL) perspective, at least, with some of the Hammers’ assets targets of Gameweek 8/9 Wildcarders due to their upcoming fixture run. The two lowest-scoring sides in the Premier League meet in east London in the final Premier League match of the day, a fixture that doesn’t scream ‘entertaining Saturday evening fare’ on paper.
West Ham vs Wolves: Two sides straddling either side of the relegation zone will be desperate for a victory when they meet at London Stadium on Saturday.
Raul Jimenez, meanwhile, has played just 211 minutes in three Premier League appearances (none since Aug. West Ham and Wolves both rank in the bottom five of the Premier League in expected goals with identical paltry 0.9 xG averages (per 90 minutes). Not so much a midfield muddle as a melee, Neves and Paqueta were kept from their creative best in order to snap into tackles, though Rice stepped forward to seize the day on several occasions Today we worked very hard and made a good victory.” We needed to win. Diego Costa flashes: The big, tempestuous veteran striker still knows where to be on the pitch and was just put off enough on a powerful header that went wide of the goal.

West Ham won 2-0 against Wolves with Gianluca Scamacca and Jarrod Bowen both finding the net as Bruno Lage admitted his team are "under pressure". Scamacca ...
This was a timely performance from Bowen, who caught the eye and looked like a player with a point to prove. Of course, Neves had the class and natural ability not to look out of place in the heart of the Wolves defence but an early booking - his fifth of the season - for a late challenge on Jarrod Bowen didn't help his cause - he now misses the next game against Chelsea. And, although it's probably too late for Max Kilman to make a late surge for the squad, the Wolves defender impressed playing down the left of a back three up against a dangerous attack. West Ham travel to Anderlecht in the Europa Conference League on Thursday at 5.45pm. This means the Wolves midfield will be without his ability to dictate a game yet again. West Ham always looked a threat when breaking up the visitors' possession game and Bowen came to the party for the first time this season on 54 minutes. He's just needed to get a level of fitness for the Premier League. I can say we are a different team when we have a striker. But it happened and we need to move on. In the first 30 minutes we had three good chances. It was a rare moment of worry for a West Ham backline that hardly broke a sweat. The £35.5m signing is off and running in the Premier League.

Hammers move out of Premier League relegation zone with 2-0 win at London Stadium.
Assessing the performances from the London Stadium, Nick Judd has provided his player ratings in the photo gallery above. Wolves, who gave a debut to former Chelsea striker Diego Costa as a substitute, rarely looked like worrying a West Ham side who claimed their second win of the season. West Ham United moved out of the relegation zone as Gianluca Scamacca's first Premier League goal paved the way for a
Following the loss to West Ham, Liam Keen rates the players on their performance.
He was incredibly quiet and hardly made a dent on the West Ham defence. His decision making was poor at times, but he was keen to test the goalkeeper and looked to create opportunities. Similar to recent weeks, the game passed Moutinho by.

Perhaps being dropped gave him a reminder of the competition in the squad, he looked like he came on with a point to prove, winning tackles and playing forward as much as he could. Huffed and puffed in the first half to create two chances for Scamacca, his first shot led to Scamacca dinking the ball wide, while the second was blocked before he got the shot off, leading to Scamacca converting. Took his goal well when Bowen's chance was cut out, controlling the ball brilliantly and getting off a clean strike from the edge of the penalty area, helped by a deflection off Jonny's head. His quality on the ball is clear to see, but a couple of times he went down too easily when challenged, when they appeared to be soft. The Ivorian's first outing from the off was short-lived though, coming off injured before the break with an ankle issue following a challenge from Podence. He was at the heart of all of West Ham's fortune going forward and got his deserved goal after the break, pouncing on Kehrer's blocked shot before shuffling past Rayan Ait-Nouri and finishing with aplomb. A really solid display from Dawson, a strong challenge on the byline early on from him announced that he was back and going to make life difficult. Solid defensively and while he tried to attack, it was not as influential as he was when trying to win back possession for his side. West Ham's star of the show was Bowen, who ended his long wait for a first league goal of the season. The former Arsenal man was called into action on a few occasions in the first half to keep the likes of Jonny and Daniel Podence from opening the scoring early on. A really solid display from the French centre-back once again, although he did not have all that much to do, with many of Wolves' best chances coming from range. As a full-back, Kehrer was able to press high and win tackles and by doing that, West Ham had a golden chance which started from a Kehrer challenge, only for Scamacca to turn wide after Bowen's shot was spilled.
