West Ham United face a crucial test at the London Stadium on Thursday night, as they welcome Bournemouth in a bid to arrest their recent slump. Kickoff is at 7:30 PM UTC, and the atmosphere will be buzzing with tension as the Hammers look to get back on track.
West Ham, nicknamed the Hammers, haven’t won in their last four matches across all competitions. Frustrating draws and a demoralizing FA Cup exit have dented their momentum. Jarrod Bowen and Michail Antonio will be key to unlocking Bournemouth’s defense and getting the goals needed for victory. The home crowd will be roaring them on, desperate to see their team rediscover their winning ways.
Bournemouth, nicknamed the Cherries, come into the match on a high after thumping Swansea City 5-0 in the FA Cup. Dominic Solanke has been on fire, scoring four goals in that match alone. They’ll be full of confidence and determined to cause an upset against the struggling Hammers.
Possible Prediction line-ups
West Ham: Areola; Johnson, Mavropanos, Zouma, Emerson; Phillips, Soucek; Kudus, Ward-Prowse, Cornet; Bowen
Bournemouth: Neto; Kelly, Zabarnyi, Senesi, Kerkez; Cook, Christie; Tavernier, Scott, Sinisterra; Solanke
