WEST HAM will be desperate to get a good result against Aston Villa as they are the ONLY side to not put a single point on the board so far this season.
The Hammers have lost all three of their opening games and that includes a 1-0 defeat to top-tier freshman Nottingham Forest.
And these results worryingly place West Ham at the bottom of the tree – a complete difference to how they started the 2021/22 campaign.
However, David Moyes’ side have a huge chance to right a few wrongs as West Ham are coming up against Aston Villa who recently got pummelled by Crystal Palace.
But the Villains will be feeling a little better about themselves following their emphatic 4-1 EFL Cup win against Bolton on Tuesday.
