West Ham United form and stats

There's been little loot from West Ham United's travels as they have only collected 12 points from 17 away games in the Premier League. West Ham United only have 3 wins to counter their 11 defeats and 3 draws. The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as West Ham United have lost on their last two travels.

The regulars enjoyed West Ham's previous fixture versus AZ, a Europa Conference League win (2-1) played at home. Midfield player Benrahma was the top player of the team with a match rating of 8.2/10. Benrahma scored one goal, hit one key pass, dribled past the opponent 4 of 7 times and had 41 successful passes (of 47 total).

Before that, West Ham United secured a home win against Manchester United with the score 1-0.

West Ham United are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 1 win, 0 draws and 5 defeats. From a total of 6 matches.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the West Ham manager Moyes as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against AZ.

The attacking power of West Ham United when travelling is not overwhelming with 15 goals scored from 17 league matches away. West Ham United's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 27 goals from these trips.
