West Ham vs Wolves: Kick-off time, prediction, TV, live stream, team news, h2h results - preview today

West Ham host Wolves later today in what already looks like a crucial game towards the bottom of the Premier League for both David Moyes and Bruno Lage.

Clearly, the season remains at an embryonic stage but both teams are struggling, and three points could prove a much-needed morale-boost.

While few would expect either West Ham or Wolves to be in the bottom three as the campaign progresses, neither have seen their seasons get up and running yet, with a victory effectively the only thing that will do that at this stage.

With media reports suggesting Moyes is under pressure following a big summer spend, Saturday’s late kick-off will certainly be one to watch.

West Ham vs Wolves team news

Moyes will provide updates in regards to team news at Friday’s press conference, although the Scot would have been happy to see the majority of his key players emerge from the international break with no obvious injury concerns.

“We’re feeling that most of the players look like they’ve returned from international duty ok,” said Moyes on Friday.

Ben Johnson and Nayef Aguerd have returned to light training, though are not yet available.

For Wolves, Diego Costa could make his debut for the club, while Nathan Collins is suspended.

Of Costa’s potential outing, Lage said on Friday: “Let’s see tomorrow.

“What I can say is he spent a long time without playing, a long time without training. The Premier League is a different level. Sometimes you need to protect him a little bit but in the moments with the team he is training very well.”
