The London Stadium will be the only Premier League venue in action this Sunday, as West Ham United welcome Aston Villa in the final match before the international break. Kickoff is at 2 PM UTC, and both teams will be looking to bounce back after highs and lows in their European adventures.
West Ham United, nicknamed “The Hammers,” come into the match flying high after a convincing win over Freiburg in the Europa League. They’ll be hoping to carry that momentum into the Premier League and climb further up the table. Michail Antonio and Jarrod Bowen will be their key attacking threats, aiming to score goals and lead West Ham to victory in front of their home fans.
Aston Villa, nicknamed “The Villans,” also enjoyed European success with a win over Ajax in the Europa Conference League. However, they’ll need to quickly switch gears and focus on improving their Premier League form. Players like Ollie Watkins and Leon Bailey will be their attacking weapons, hoping to exploit any weaknesses in the West Ham defense and steal valuable points away from home.
