Since the first round of the Premier League team has at home and Manchester United in the first half could still resist an opponent, but if it were not for the defense mistake at the end of the first half, we could talk about coherence action game.

The match on Sunday will be West Ham’s first Premier League game at their new London Stadium and comes nearly a year to the day after they lost 4-3 at home to Eddie Howe’s men. By all accounts, the Hammers have done a fine job of making it seem like a genuine football ground rather than a dressed-up athletics arena. We analysed that game and we were disappointed to concede some.
“As I said, we have a good result and with the greatest respect to them we should beat them, but we still have to do it”. Can Payet reach his very best quickly or will it be a case of ‘second season syndrome’ for the number 27? With a number of changes for the Europa League play-off away, West Ham drew 1-1 with Astra Giurgiu.
West Ham United are facing something of a quandary regarding the recent injury sustained by Andre Ayew.
“He’s going to be out for not long long, but a longer time!” Dimitri Payet will be one we need to keep an eye on, even though he was only a sub late on in the game recently against Chelsea, he will be out to impress his manager in front of a large crowd at the Olympic Stadium and the game being shown live on Sky.
West Ham opened the scoring in first-half stoppage time through Noble after Cristian Sapunaru had been penalised for handball, while the visitors appeared to be in complete control of proceedings. “We are going to decide which one soon”. He is also a true goal threat and a set piece specialist, which adds more and more.
The game looked headed to a welcome draw for West Ham, but Blues striker Diego Costa netted the victor with one minute remaining to snatch the three points away from the visitors.

The last nine minutes of the match, after the feisty Romanians had drawn level through Denis Alibec, the degree of fatigue in the team was worrying as West Ham embark on a run of games starting with Sunday’s home opener against Bournemouth. In the home game at Dean Court West Ham gained revenge by taking 3 points in a 3-1 victory, the Cherries goal coming from Harry Arter.
