West Ham will look to underline their promotion credentials when they face Derby County London Stadium, with the Hammers arriving off an entertaining 4-2 victory over Wolverhampton. Summer signing Divine Mukasa was the star of the show after scoring twice in the midweek derby, and he will be one to watch again here. Experienced midfielder Tomas Soucek remains in the treatment room. West Ham have won 67% of their last 10 home matches, while their home fixtures have averaged a huge 4.33 goals.
Derby, meanwhile, finally picked up their first win of the season by edging Portsmouth, giving the Rams a much-needed confidence boost. Craig Forsyth is doubtful after picking up a knock in that victory, while Lars-Jorgen Salvesen is pushing for a starting role after scoring off the bench. The Rams have scored 1.75 goals per game across their last four away matches, although they have also conceded 1.50 per game on the road.
As West Ham have won 67% of their last 10 home games and four of the last five H2H meetings, Home Win seems like the best betting option for this matchup, alongside West Ham Over 1.5 and Over 2.5 goals (80% of the last five H2H encounters produced at least three goals).
This Championship match will be played on Saturday 5 September 2026 at 15:00.
