[The Hammers can jump out of the bottom three](https://readwestham.com/2026/04/09/west-ham-vs-wolves-preview-prediction-premier-league/) with a win, putting [Tottenham Hotspur](https://readtottenham.com/) into the relegation zone heading into Saturday’s fixtures. [Nuno Espir](https://readwestham.com/2026/04/08/west-ham-vs-wolverhampton-wanderers-nuno-pre-match/)[i](https://readwestham.com/2026/04/08/west-ham-vs-wolverhampton-wanderers-nuno-pre-match/)[to Santo’s team](https://readwestham.com/2026/04/08/west-ham-vs-wolverhampton-wanderers-nuno-pre-match/) head into the game at the [London Stadium](https://readwestham.com/2026/03/25/west-ham-may-be-asked-to-vacate-their-home-for-athletics-championship/) on the back of [penalty shootout loss to Leeds United in the FA Cup](https://readwestham.com/2026/04/05/west-ham-0-2-leeds-united/). Despite this, the mood in the [West Ham](https://readwestham.com/) camp is good, with many confident of the task in front of them. [Wolves have begun to turn things ro](https://readwestham.com/2026/04/08/head-to-head-west-ham-vs-wolverhampton-wanderers/)[und under Rob Edwards](https://readwestham.com/2026/04/08/head-to-head-west-ham-vs-wolverhampton-wanderers/). Whilst they are almost certainly relegated this season, they look like a more competent team now, winning two of their last five, making the task all that harder for the Hammers. Here’s who we think will start tonight’s game. ## Mads Hermansen (GK) [Mads Hermansen](https://readwestham.com/2026/03/30/west-ham-mads-hermansen-on-denmark-debut/) returns after being rested at the weekend. The shot stopper played every minute of [Denmark’s World Cup playoff campaign](https://readwestham.com/2026/04/01/west-ham-international-watch-soucek-wan-bissaka-qualify/) and was given Sunday off, with [Alphonse Areola](https://readwestham.com/2026/04/06/west-ham-finlay-herrick-fa-cup-debut/) taking his place. ## Malick Diouf (LB) El Hadji Malick Diouf keeps his place after Sunday. The Senegal international looked solid in the game and is an obvious starter. ## Axel Disasi (CB) [Axel Disasi](https://readwestham.com/2026/04/07/west-ham-sweat-fitness-nine-players/) is another to keep his place. There was worries the Frenchman had picked up a knock but he is good to go for this massive game. ## Konstantinos Mavropanos (CB) [West Ham](https://whufc.com/en)‘s talisman missed the FA Cup clash with a head injury but is now back and available. [Konstantinos Mavropanos](https://readwestham.com/2026/03/30/west-ham-konstantinos-mavropanos-greece-injury/) comes in ahead of [Jean-Clair Todibo](https://readwestham.com/2026/04/09/west-ham-jean-clair-todibo-survival-efforts/) who may not be ready to start. ## Kyle Walker-Peters (RB) One of West Ham’s best performers in the FA Cup loss, Kyle Walker-Peters keeps his place. [Aaron Wan-Bissaka](https://readwestham.com/2026/04/08/west-ham-formal-complaint-aaron-wan-bissaka-dr-congo/) is now available but Walker-Peters performance earns him another start. ## Mateus Fernandes (CDM) The Portuguese international showed his class at the weekend once again, getting another goal for his tally. [Mateus Fernandes](https://readwestham.com/2026/04/08/west-ham-manchester-city-interested-matues-fernandes/) starts again. ## Tomas Soucek (CDM) [Tomas Soucek](https://readwestham.com/2026/04/03/west-ham-tomas-soucek-czechia-world-cup-qualifaction/) returns to the line up after coming off the bench at the weekend. The towering midfielder is so important to the Hammers. ## Crysencio Summerville (LW) The return of the star boy. [Crysencio Summerville](https://readwestham.com/2026/03/31/west-ham-crysencio-summerville-should-not-play-agaisnt-leeds-united/) should be ready to go tonight and if he is, the winger will be in from the off. A huge boost for West Ham. ## Adama Traore (CAM) [Adama Traore](https://readwestham.com/2026/04/07/west-ham-adama-traore-ready-to-help-west-ham/) put on his best performance in an Irons shirt on Sunday and deserves to stay in the team. To accommodate for Summerville, [the 30-year-old](https://readwestham.com/2026/04/07/west-ham-adama-traore-fighting-spirt/) moves inside to attack more centrally. ## Jarrod Bowen (RW) [The captain](https://readwestham.com/2026/04/09/west-ham-jarrod-bowen-helps-hereford-fc/) stays on the right side looking to contribute again. [Jarrod Bowen](https://readwestham.com/2026/04/10/west-ham-jarrod-bowen-team-good-place/) hit the post twice on Sunday, this time he will look to find the net. ## Valentin Castellanos (ST) [Valentin Castellanos](https://readwestham.com/2026/04/02/west-ham-valentin-castellanos-move-relegation/) stays up top. The forward had many chances to score and was unlucky to not find the net. West Ham need to keep feeding him chances. **Hermansen (GK); Diouf; Disasi; Mavropanos; Walker-Peters; Fernandes; Soucek; Summerville; Traore; Bowen; Castellanos**
