Jarrod Bowen has now reached eight goal contributions in eight appearances for West Ham United this season.
The Hammers captain scored twice in Tuesday night’s 3-2 Championship victory over Bolton Wanderers, including the 77th-minute winner.
That took Bowen to five goals and three assists across all competitions in 2026/27.
Opta Analyst records three Championship goals and two assists from six league appearances, while he has also produced two goals and one assist in the Carabao Cup.
Bowen delivering when West Ham need him
Bowen has not necessarily dominated every game this season.
What he has continued to do is produce decisive moments.
His first Championship goal of the campaign came during the 4-2 victory over Wolves.
He then scored twice at Bolton, opening the scoring before eventually restoring West Ham’s lead late in the second half.
West Ham’s official match centre confirms the 3-2 victory, while the club also published Bowen’s post-match interview after his decisive performance.
The captain said after the game that there is “no better feeling than scoring goals for this Club”.
That contribution proved particularly important after Bolton had twice threatened to take control of the contest.
Bowen numbers underline West Ham promotion advantage
Bowen’s Championship record currently stands at three goals and two assists.
That means he has directly contributed to five goals in West Ham’s opening six league games.
FBref also records five goals and three assists across his eight appearances in all competitions this season.
The numbers underline one of West Ham’s clearest advantages in the promotion race.
Nuno Espírito Santo has a proven Premier League and England international attacker playing in the Championship.
Bowen has previously shown his ability at this level too.
He scored 52 league goals during his time with Hull City before joining West Ham in January 2020, according to Opta Analyst.
Now he is again producing regularly in the second tier.
