West Ham team news

£30m summer arrival Nayef Aguerd has returned to training after picking up an ankle injury shortly following his move from Rennes. The centre-back isn't expected to be involved as soon as this weekend, but could make his debut before the winter World Cup.

Ben Johnson has been out with a thigh injury since pulling up in the first half of West Ham's only Premier League win of the season against Aston Villa in August.

Wolves team news

The trip to London could be the setting for Diego Costa's Premier League return. The former Chelsea striker hasn't played a competitive match in ten months but may be ushered into the squad given Raul Jimenez's continued struggles with a groin problem.

Fellow forward Sasa Kalajdzic and the young winger Chiquinho are long-term absentees while Nathan Collins will be serving the first of a three-match suspension following his red card against Manchester City.

Wolves predicted lineup vs West Ham

Wolves Starting 11 (4-3-3): Sa; Jonny, Neves, Kilman, Ait-Nouri; Nunes, Moutinho, B Traore; Neto, Podence, Guedes.

West Ham vs Wolves score prediction

Predicting a game as devilishly fluid and changeable as football is always an unforgiving task but there is plenty of evidence to suggest that Saturday evening's offering isn't poised to be a goal-fest.

The Premier League's lowest-scoring sides have six goals between them this term (almost half Erling Haaland's individual tally) and both boast the worst conversion rate in the division (4%).

In what will now invariably be a barn-burner for the ages, West Ham's home advantage gives them the edge against a Wolves side whose struggles in front of goal stretch back further than those of their hosts.

Prediction: West Ham 1-0 Wolves
