West Ham United form and stats

OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for West Ham United's two home games in the Premier League so far this season, having collected 3 points here at London Stadium.

West Ham United are returning here after guesting Lincoln City in a Carabao Cup match and winning with a 1-0 scoreline. Goalkeeper Fabiański got the top rating on the team in that game; 7.91 out of ten. Fabiański topped it up with a clean sheet.

Heartbreak before that as West Ham United lost 1-3 at Liverpool's place.

Both teams to score! That has happened in 6 league rounds in a row for this side. Could it happen again?

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the West Ham United at home in the league. 4 on target and 4 scored by the opposition; from 2 matches.

Sheffield United form and stats

No Premier League points yet away for Sheffield United, from their first 2 matches.

Sheffield United's previous game was their home loss versus Newcastle United (0-8). As you can see from the result above, the defeat against Newcastle United was particularly ugly (0-8). The humiliation is still top of mind. Sheffield goalkeeper Foderingham could enjoy a brilliant shift vs Newcastle United, but despite making seven saves the beating could not be evaded. The attacker Traore got a match rating of 7.03 in that game. Traore hit one key pass and dribled past the opponent 2 of 2 times.

Preceding that game, the 1-2 loss visiting Tottenham Hotspur's place.

Goals galore? This club have played 5 consecutive league games all ending with three or more goals (over 2.5 goals).

{2 goals} so far away for Sheffield United, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 4. All from 2 league matches away.

Head 2 Head

As for the last seven games between these two teams, there's three West Ham United victories, two draws and two Sheffield United wins. Over/under statistics; two of these games ended with three goals or more, five matches with two goals or less.
