West Ham vs Wolverhampton prediction 10.04.2026 | Premier League

After 14 consecutive seasons in the Premier League, West Ham are in danger of relegation. They are the first team below the line with one point fewer than safety. West Ham urgently needs victories, but their shaky form offers little optimism. Nuno Espirito Santo's team won only once in the last six Premier League rounds. In the most recent outing, West Ham lost at home in the FA Cup after penalties against Leeds. That was one of the best performances by the Hammers lately, but they still ended empty-handed.

After losing in the FA Cup quarterfinal, West Ham's manager, Nuno Espirito Santo, felt that his team deserved more. He said, "I think we did enough to avoid the penalty shootout, but today was not to be. In the previous round, we came through to the penalty shootout, and we said that we were efficient, but today we were not so efficient."

Lukasz Fabianski is injured and will not play on Friday night. Also questionable are Crysencio Summerville, Konstantinos Mavropanos, and Jean-Clair Todibo.

Next season, Wolverhampton will play in the Championship. They are at the bottom of the Premier League standings with 13 points fewer than safety, and it seems impossible for the team from Molineux Stadium to avoid relegation. However, Wolverhampton have played better lately, losing only two of its last eight matches. In the previous game, they played 2-2 on the road against Brentford. Although the hosts finished with an xG of 2.56, while the guests had only 1.33, Wolves still managed to take one point. 

Wolverhampton didn't play last week after being knocked out of the FA Cup, so Rob Edwards' team hadn't had an official match for more than three weeks. That could only mean that Wolves had more than enough time to focus on Friday's game at London Stadium. 

Wolverhampton will be without injured Sam Johnstone and Enso Gonzalez Medina on Friday night.
