West Ham United vs Wolverhampton Wanderers: Expect cards and goals

West Ham United will play host to Wolverhampton at home. This encounter will be part of the 27th round of the English Championship. Can the Hammers take revenge for their first-round defeat?

After beating Watford 1:0, West Ham United lost points in their next two English Premier League games. First, David Moyes' side drew 2:2 with Leicester City and then the Londoners failed to beat Newcastle United. This game ended in a 1:1 draw. With 42 points, West Ham United are sixth in the EPL table. They are four points behind fourth-placed United.

Arsenal was Wolverhampton's last opponents in the English league. Bruno Lage's side opened the scoring early with a goal from forward Hee-Chan. Then, the Wolves didn't play their best game. The Wolves conceded two goals in the game's closing stages and suffered a 1:2 defeat. Wolves have 40 points remaining. The Wolves are currently eighth in the English league table.

The disciplined play of Moyes' men is worth highlighting. By this season, West Ham has received 32 yellow cards. Only two clubs in the EPL have shown fewer cautions. The last meetings involving Wolverhampton have been tense, with many warnings. Here we can consider a line with Wolves winning on the cards. We would also suggest betting on a Wolves goal in the first half. They will be motivated to make amends for their latest failure at the Emirates. We also don't exclude that the game between the Hammers and the Wolves will turn out to be a productive one.
