After a difficult result last weekend against Liverpool, West Ham will look to regroup as they take on a shaky Fulham side.
Although the Hammers had a frustrating result against a stingy Liverpool side, West Ham performed against the reigning champions in a narrow defeat at Anfield. Pablo Fornals scored for the Hammers, and once again showed why he should be in the starting XI week in and out. As for the rest of the squad, there is work to be done.
Although the defence was solid against a great Liverpool attack, the Hammers seem to keep on conceding goals. Issa Diop has been out of the team for the past few weeks due to the play of Fabian Balbuena, and you have to wonder if David Moyes could potentially make a change at centre-half.
As for the attack, it was tough sledding for Sebastien Haller against a weakened Liverpool defence, and with Antonio out for a few weeks, you have to wonder whether the pressure from the fanbase will start to get to Haller.
With this be the match that Hammers fan finally see a full Said Benrahma debut? Although Benrahma was a sub in the last match against Liverpool, many fans will want to see the new signing make his full debut this week against a weakened Fulham side.
There are many choices that David Moyes can make for this upcoming match, but the fact of the matter is that the Hammers need to come away from this match with a victory. Although the Irons have started off the season well, it is crucial that we can secure points from some of the struggling clubs at the bottom of the table.
Moyes will be eager to see what his shaken side has to offer, and will look to get the Hammers back on track with a victory at the weekend. Although you can be sure Fulham will put up a fight, the Hammers simply have too much talent and skill to drop this game. It will be close, but fans will be disappointed in anything other than all three points for the Irons.
