West Ham successfully stopped the rot after losing their first three games of the Premier League season, losing just one of the last five, keeping three clean sheets, but it’s time they started to pick up points and move up the table.
Draws against West Brom and Burnley have to go down as points dropped considering the talent the Hammers field these days, but Slaven Bilic’s men can move closer to the top half with a win over a struggling Brighton side tomorrow night.
Bilic will be without Andy Carroll after he was sent off in the draw at Burnley which could pave the way for a more expansive, fluid approach.
Brighton sit above West Ham on goal difference but have found the net just six times in eight games, half of which came in their home win against West Brom last month.
Here’s a look at our predicted XI for tomorrow’s Friday Night Football clash.
