Both clubs are Premier League teams, which adds intrigue to this clash. Last season, the teams drew 1-1 in both of their Premier League encounters.

West Ham 

Last season, the Hammers fell short of European competition and finished in ninth place in the Premier League. It was clear that West Ham aimed for success in the Europa League, but the team was eliminated in the quarter-finals by Bayer Leverkusen, losing 0-2 away and drawing 1-1 at home.

The team did not make a strong impression during the preseason, suffering losses to teams such as Wolverhampton and Crystal Palace. In the first round of the new Premier League season, West Ham lost 1-2 at home to Aston Villa. However, last weekend, the Hammers secured a 2-0 away win against Crystal Palace, scoring both goals in the final minutes of the match.

Bournemouth

Last season, Bournemouth had a turbulent campaign. The team started poorly but managed to pull themselves out of the relegation zone and secure enough points to comfortably remain in the Premier League. They finished in a respectable 12th place and are looking to build on that performance this season.

During the offseason, the team lost Dominic Solanke but used the funds to strengthen the squad effectively. In the opening matches of the new season, Bournemouth drew 1-1 twice. They earned points in an away match against Nottingham Forest and, last weekend, drew 1-1 at home against Newcastle.
