The start of the season for West Ham was confident. The team won a group in the Conference League, which allowed them to get into the playoffs of this championship without unnecessary nerves. At some point, David Moyes was under threat of dismissal, but the management decided not to change the mentor, who is now the best option for the capital. Moreover, there are no special funds for a world-class coach yet and the holes in the defensive formations must be patched up in the near future. On account of London there are four victories and two draws for 16 rounds, which in the end will bring 14 points and only 16th place in the standings. After the success in the duel with Bournemouth (2:0) at the end of October, the hosts lost four duels in a row. Skamakka, Agred and Cornet, who has a leg injury, will not be able to play today.
Wards of Thomas Frank had a brilliant start to the new championship. Over 16 rounds of the current championship, the capital’s team has almost secured its place in the elite division, while four victories and eight peaceful outcomes correspond to 20 points, which is nine points less than the representatives of the European Cup zone. After a sensational success in a duel with Manchester City (2:1), today’s guests tied with Tottenham (2:2) at home. This draw was very disappointing, especially considering that the team was leading the score 2:0. The guests finished Boxing Day in an impressive tenth place. Oneka, Strakosha, Hickey, Batiste and Ayer, who has a knee injury, will not be able to help his team in this duel. More all today football match predictions can be obtained from the link provided.
