West Ham United vs Stoke City Preview

West Ham United vs Stoke City

Competition – Barclays Premier League

Stadium – London Stadium

Date: 16th April 2018

Kick-off time – 20:00 GMT

Just over a month ago before the international break, West Ham were a club in trouble after fans protested when they were thrashed 3-0 by Burnley at the London Stadium.

Credit to their stars however as they have stepped up to the plate and secured one win and a draw in their last two matches, the last of which was a commendable 1-1 draw at Stamford Bridge.

The Hammers are now 14th in the league table and they would fancy their chances of getting the win against this truly woeful Stoke City side.

West Ham will be looking to add Stoke to Southampton, Watford and West Brom as teams they have beaten recently.

Stoke City are heading for the Championship despite the star men on their payroll unless they pick up some excellent form in the next couple of games.

They may have changed their manager, but that has not changed their fortune as they are currently winless in 9 league games after their 2-1 home loss to Tottenham last weekend.

They have lost their last 4 league fixtures which has sent them to the 19th position in the league table.

They have won just one of their away games this season, and that was in October – they have since lost 7 of their last 11 on the road.

Bookmakers side with West Ham in this tie.
