Prediction: 2-1
Wolverhampton Wanderers
West Ham United will be aiming to record their first win of the season when they welcome Wolverhampton at their London Stadium. The Hammers’ performances are better than their results and they do not deserve to sit in the bottom three ahead of Matchday 4. Marko Arnautovic has been scoring goals for fun at the start of the season, but it remains to be seen if the Austrian striker is going to recover in time to face Wolverhampton as he picked up a knock in the 3-1 loss to Arsenal at the weekend. The Wolves, on the other hand, did remarkably well to hold star-studded Manchester City to a 1-1 draw at the weekend, but seeing that they often struggle on the travels, we are tempted to put our money on the hosts. West Ham want this win more than Wolverhampton and, taking everything into account, home win should be considered.

Highlighted Player (Andriy Yarmolenko):
Arguably the most exciting Ukrainian player at the moment, Andriy Yarmolenko is the 26-year-old forward, who can play wide as a winger and fill in numerous positions in attack. Over the past few years there has been a gathering feeling that the player has outgrown the Ukrainian League and that with the player surpassing the 200-game mark for Dynamo Kyiv Yarmolenko should be heading west to Europe’s brighter stage. Wanted and scouted by Spanish giants Barcelona, Yarmolenko attracted interest from many other clubs, predominantly from the Premier League, and was even close to joining Everton in summer 2016, but the Goodison outfit’s offer came too late to the Ukrainian club. Talented forward is a free-scoring machine who has already scored more than 115 goals for the club he spent his entire career with. The two-footed winger is equally adept through the middle and is a versatile force that would be a good addition to any self-respecting European side. Yarmolenko made hi Ukraine debut in 2009 and has so far been capped 63 times, during which he scored 26 goals for the national set-up.
