Analysis of the match between Wolverhampton and West Ham United
Having collected only three points so far, Wolves are enduring a disastrous Premier League campaign, setting numerous unwanted records. This season, they are the team with the most defeats (16), the fewest goals scored (11), and the worst defensive record (40 goals conceded). Remarkably, Wolves have become the first team in Premier League history to go winless after half of the season has been completed.
Given the current situation, it would take a miracle for Wolves to avoid relegation by the end of the 2025/26 season. However, there have been some encouraging signs recently. In their last two matches, Wolves showed great determination, narrowly losing 1-2 away to reigning champions Liverpool before holding Manchester United to a 1-1 draw at Old Trafford.
Those brave performances provide a basis to believe that Wolves can defeat West Ham and finally put an end to their 23-match winless run in the Premier League. In terms of form, West Ham appear to be a very manageable opponent, as they are also struggling badly. The Hammers are winless in eight consecutive matches and currently sit in the relegation zone, four points adrift of safety (14 compared to 18). Notably, West Ham have lost three of their last four meetings with Wolves. Hosting an out-of-form opponent with an unfavorable head-to-head record presents Wolves with a golden opportunity to rediscover the taste of victory.
