THE PREDICTION
Both these two sides picked up important victories at the weekend. Whilst West Ham grabbed a narrow 1-0 win over Burnley, West Brom took the all-important bragging rights in a thrilling Black Country Derby at Molineux, as Sam Allardyce’s side triumphed 2-3 vs Wolves. Such a win will have done wonders for the Baggies’ confidence and they’ll head to London quietly confident of another positive result. West Ham though have been in great form for a long time now, having lost just twice in their last 12 matches in all competitions and David Moyes’ men have proven their resilience a number of times. West Brom are unbeaten in their two away Premier League games under Allardyce and the Hammers will need to be aware of their attacking threat, particularly at set pieces with central defender Semi Ajayi scoring in both of those matches. This will prove an intriguing affair vs two teams high on confidence and it wouldn’t be a surprise if the points were shared here.
