West Ham

In pursuit of their first victory in 2024, West Ham tried to redeem themselves from the FA Cup elimination in the last Premier League round when they drew 2-2 against Sheffield.

Their home season has been quite average and could be even better considering the strengthened squad, but they have only secured 5 wins in 10 home games. Despite the mediocre performance, the team remains undefeated in 9 consecutive games in all competitions.

For this game, with suspensions and injuries, the team will miss 7 players, including some starters such as Paquetá, Aguerd, Coufal, and Kudus. To reinforce the midfield, the team brought in Kalvin Phillips on loan, and he may be available for this match.

On the other hand, the visitors, despite advancing 2 rounds in the FA Cup against Championship teams, enter the Premier League with 2 losses, conceding 7 goals and scoring only 1. A mid-table finish seems likely for a team aiming to avoid relegation.

Away from home, they neither impress nor disappoint, with 4 wins and 5 losses in 10 games and a goal difference of -6. Bournemouth is significantly weakened in the full-back positions for this match, with 4 players unavailable.
