Both of these clubs were relegated from the Premier League last season. West Ham have made a poor start to the new season and are 19th, visitors Wolves are second. All the league games played by these sides this season have seen BTTS and that's our prediction for this match.
West Ham were relegated last season and an immediate return to the Premier League has to be the aim for such a large club. They have struggled so far though and the pressure is already on Santo. A loss against his former club might just see him leave the club.
Wolves made a dreadful start to last season and never recovered from it. Unlike their opponents, Wolves have made a good start to the new season with seven points from three games and they only have Charlton above them in the table. They are the top scorers in the league with nine goals but have conceded four themselves. An open game looks likely here and both teams scoring looks a very good wager to place.

West Ham - Wolves: Form Analysis
West Ham would have wanted to make a much better start to life back in the Championship. Three games in and they are yet to win a league fixture. Their only victory of the season came at home to Portsmouth in the Carabao Cup, but they then lost 4-1 at home to Southampton in round two..
In the Championship, West Ham have drawn at Burnley, lost at home to Charlton and at the weekend, drew 1-1 at Watford. All five of their games played this season have seen both teams get on the scoresheet.
Great start for Wolves.
Wolves are second in the table after the first three games of the new season. Last term saw them make an appalling start to their Premier League season. They always looked nailed on to be relegated after that, but it's gone much better this season.
After an opening draw with Blackburn, Wolves have had league wins at Preston and home to Stoke City. All of their three league fixtures have seen both teams get on the scoresheet and that looks likely here too.

West Ham & Wolves Squad Analysis
There have been plenty of changes at West Ham since their relegation from the Premier League. So far it hasn't worked for them with no league wins and growing pressure on their coach as they fall behind the leading pack.
The weekend game at Watford did at least see them avoid defeat and there were some promising signs, but stll no league win. West Ham have produced some fine players over the decades and the Watford match saw them field several Academy players.
More transfer activity on its way.
The transfer window closes this week and there are likely to be more signings and departures at West Ham. The signings will come too late for this game but the imminent departures of Jean-Clair Todibo and Josh Brownhill are likely to rule them out of this fixture.
Wolves have already scored nine league goals this season with six players scoring those goals. The returning Jimenez, Lopez and Gomes have all scored twice for Wanderers as they seek to make an immediate return to the top flight.
