WHU go winless again?
The Hammers are playing a second half of the season to forget. The traditional club from London’s East End failed to win for the fourth time in a row last matchday with a draw against Tottenham. West Ham thus missed a great opportunity to close the gap to sixth place, which entitles them to participate in the Conference League play-offs.
WHU will now make their next attempt on Saturday. The Londoners visit Wolves and are – at least according to the bookmakers – the underdogs. Betting odds of up to 2.70 are currently available for a Wolverhampton v West Ham bet on the visitors – and rightly so…
Like West Ham, Wolverhampton are winless in their last three competitive matches. The Wolves also had to bow out of the FA Cup. Wolves suffered a bitter 3-2 defeat at home to second division side Coventry
Wolves’ negative trend may well continue against WHU. Wolverhampton have lost three of their last four league matches, including a 3-0 defeat in the first half of the current season. Our Wolverhampton vs. West Ham prediction is also aimed at the Londoners this time. The new customer bonus at Betway can also be used for this!
Wolverhampton – Statistics & current form
Wolverhampton are currently bobbing around in no man’s land in the Premier League. With 42 points in their account, Wolves are not in danger of relegation, but the traditional club from the West Midlands still has a chance of an international starting place. To do so, Wolves must finish the 2023/24 season in sixth place.
Ahead of matchday 32 against West Ham United, Wolverhampton are six points adrift of sixth-placed Manchester United, who also have one game fewer to their name than Wolves. This makes the upcoming league clash against WHU all the more important. After all, the Londoners are also direct rivals in the race for sixth place.
The home advantage speaks in Wolves’ favor. Wolverhampton have won four of their last five home games against West Ham. Bettors who are leaning towards a Wolves win this time can also use the Crazybuzzer free bet for a Wolverhampton vs West Ham bet. If the home side is successful, the minimum odds criterion will also be met!
Wolves will improve their home record?
In the 14 home games of the current league season, Wolverhampton have a record of 7-3-4 so far. Most recently, there have been two consecutive wins at Molineux Stadium in the Premier League, but Wolves had to bow out in the FA Cup against a second division side. It therefore remains to be seen how Wolverhampton will now perform against their London league rivals.
At least one goal conceded is obvious. Since the 1-0 win against Brighton just under a month ago, Wolverhampton have conceded at least one goal in each of their last five competitive matches. The Wolves have even conceded ten times in total – an average of 2.50 goals per game.
Head coach Gary O’Neil can largely draw on a full squad this weekend. Two players, Neto and Hwang, are still out through injury. Dawson and Bellegarde, on the other hand, are still questionable.
Wolverhampton’s probable line-up:

West Ham – stats & current form
Head coach David Moyes’ side are currently struggling in the Premier League – but appearances are deceptive. Although WHU are winless in their last four league games, the Londoners have not performed badly and have already scored against Spurs – currently fifth in the Premier League table – among others.
If they can build on that, the seventh-placed team in the table could well win the upcoming league game. It would be WHU’s seventh win in their 16th away game of the current league season. So far, the Londoners have a record of 6-2-7 on foreign soil. This calendar year, West Ham have won just one of their seven competitive games away from home.
It should also be noted that WHU last won at Wolverhampton’s Molineux Stadium in April 2021. Since then, there have been two consecutive away defeats at Wolves. West Ham also failed to score in those two encounters
No clean sheet for WHU again?
This time the Londoners can be expected to score at Molineux. A clean sheet, on the other hand, tends to be unrealistic. Since the goalless draw against Brighton on matchday 20 of the Premier League, WHU have conceded at least one goal in every league game. The negative trend is likely to continue against Wolves.
David Moyes will be without at least three players in the squad for the upcoming league game. WHU have no other personnel concerns. With 15 goals to his name, Jarrod Bowen is currently the Hammers’ top scorer. The right winger should also be considered as a potential goalscorer against Wolves.
Wolverhampton – West Ham head-to-head / H2H record
In the last 72 meetings WHU have the upper hand and lead the direct comparison against Wolverhampton with a record of 34-14-24. Five of those 34 wins have come in the last seven H2hs. West Ham have only lost twice in this period – but both defeats were on foreign soil.
In the first half of the current season, West Ham came out on top with a 3-0 win over Wolves. It was the fifth H2h in a row in which betting on “BTS: No” paid off
Wolverhampton – West Ham betting tip
West Ham are aiming for a turnaround. The Londoners are currently in a results crisis and have not been able to reward themselves for their performances against teams like Tottenham, Newcastle & Co. in recent weeks. However, if the momentum is carried forward, a win against their upcoming opponents cannot be ruled out.
Wolverhampton are also in a form crisis. Wolves have not won any of their last three competitive games and have already been knocked out of the cup against a second division side. It is quite possible that this negative streak will continue against the Londoners.
We see value in the high odds on a WHU win and therefore venture a moderate bet of three units on Wolverhampton v West Ham. Betway currently offers the best odds
