For West Ham (11 points – 17th place), it's been a mighty struggle to score goals this season (9 in 11 games, 3rd-fewest in the Premier League). For Bournemouth ...
Newcastle’s in the discussion: There’s a lot of work to be done and a lot of season to be played but there’s very little in the first three months of the season that shows Newcastle cannot be a serious part of the top seven fight and perhaps even compete for a cup. Youri Tielemans’ strike was incredible and the movement and finish on Harvey Barnes’ effort was Leicester at its very best. Bamford had terrific chances in the 1-0 loss to Arsenal and the 2-0 loss to Leicester City, and he missed a prime chance to put Leeds ahead after coming on for scorer Rodrigo. Everton’s loaded midfield delivers as McNeil flashes off the bench (Everton 3-0 Crystal Palace): On a good day for Everton midfielders, Dwight McNeil flashed for Frank Lampard when he entered the fray with the Toffees holding the lead. Ollie Watkins was more of a winger on Sunday and Leon Bailey was splendid on the left. Class of Casemiro and Christian Eriksen gives United sturdy foundation (Chelsea 1-1 Man Utd – Player ratings): The experienced duo of Christian Eriksen and Casemiro got Man United off to a fine start at Chelsea as they ticked things over nicely in midfield and gave the visitors a foundation to get something from the game. (Man City 3-1 Brighton): When a side has a goalscorer of Erling Haaland’s quality and consistency, they’ll win more games than not even when they turn in a 5/10 or 6/10 performance (by their own standards). The rest then usually takes care of itself as Arsenal can sit back and tempt opponents to take more chances to get back in the game. Newcastle’s in the discussion (Spurs 1-2 Newcastle): There’s a lot of work to be done and a lot of season to be played but there’s very little in the first three months of the season that shows Newcastle cannot be a serious part of the top seven fight and perhaps even compete for a cup. Klopp said a few weeks ago they were out of the title race and after a few dogged wins it looked like they could be back in it. Bukayo Saka scored the winner for Arsenal at Leeds, while the Gunners are digging deep and putting in gritty displays. For Bournemouth (13 points – 13th place), it’s been much the same story (10 goals scored).
West Ham vs Bournemouth Premier League preview, including line-ups, stats, form guide, injury news, team news and how to watch.
- Slow starters: West Ham have scored fewer first-half goals than any other side in the Premier League this season (2). However, he has started in the Europa Conference League and impressed with his performances. Just really important to me, the characteristics of how we lose a game, how we perform. He won’t make it in time for the Cherries, though. The world would have ended 300 times. Both sides are looking to bounce back after 1-0 defeats in midweek.

xid:fr1666621123344ahj), [DirecTV Stream](https://www.directv.com/stream/), [Sling](https://www.sling.com/programming/sports/soccer), [Peacock](https://www.peacocktv.com/sports) [Check out the Premier League tables and results here](https://www.premierleague.com/tables) West Ham has been arguably one of the larger disappointments in the early going of the EPL season. That put an end to a six-match unbeaten streak for the club, which featured wins over Nottingham Forest and Leicester City. Victories over Wolverhampton and Fulham earlier this month put some at ease over the poor start for the club, but West Ham needs to keep stringing points together if they want to avoid any rash decisions before the transfer window.

West Ham United look to return to winning ways on Monday night when they take on Bournemouth at the London Stadium, currently sitting just two points clear ...
I’ve got to say Scott Parker did a brilliant job at Bournemouth as well getting them up and getting them in the Premier League is a great achievement. "If you said recently to me about goals, ‘who would have been more likely to score for us at the moment?’ it would have been Jarrod Bowen. They've had a really good start to the season. Centre-backs Craig Dawson (dead leg) and winger Maxwel Cornet (calf) do however have a chance of returning to the side following recent absences. I think Jarrod has done well in the last few weeks, We are playing him a bit more central at different time as well, hopefully get him closer to goals. He’s done very well, it’s not easy to go on these runs in the Premier League, especially being a new club. The incidents led to 13 arrests on the night, 12 of which towards Anderlecht fans, with four police officers injured and two hospitalised. His form has got better and he has been really important to us," Moyes said. Follow the live blog for all of the latest team news, pre-match build up, score updates, thoughts and analysis from the home of the Hammers. It might just come a bit quick, the first one certainly, but I’m hoping that maybe these two games are a possibility. He's done very well, a good job.
Star summer signing Lucas Paqueta has been ruled out, though Maxwel Cornet has an outside chance of making the squad. Bournemouth have no fresh injuries ...
"He's so exciting, the way he plays. "I've played with (Michail) Antonio for so many years and he's done so many good things for this club. Despite their lowly standing ahead of kick-off, West Ham were unlucky to lose to Liverpool and have largely shaken off their poor start. "There's belief in the group. Such is the congested table, victory tonight would send West Ham above tonight’s opponents and into the top half. Bournemouth have no fresh injuries concerns has they look to recover from their first defeat under caretaker manager Gary O'Neil.

A West Ham corner is swung in by Bowen, it hits Kehrer and is headed back into the six-yard box by Soucek and then flicks off both Downes and Zouma and lands into the bottom corner. 49 mins: “So Sean Dyche and Jamie Carragher on Sky say it’s a goal, no problem. He follows it up soon after with a sliced effort from the edge of the box that flies wide. His latest involvement sees him thwack a dipping shot from 30 yards but it goes just over the bar. I think that is very much a red card … If Alisson and Ederson pull up lame before the World Cup, I’m gonna have a lot to answer for.” “Is Mike Dean locked in the toilet? 78 mins: Billing curls in a cross form the right which Fabianski comes to claim but he drops it after being clattered by Lerma, leaving the goalkeeper and Johnson on the deck. Finally a sign of promise for 90 mins: It is not handball for co-commentator Alan Smith and I would not give it. Gary O’Neil should be rightly angry about it all but his team only offered any attacking play in the final 10 minutes. Gary O’Neil goes and wags his finger in the referee’s face.

Sometimes, less is more, and the Algerian showed he is ready to simplify his game in order to increase his end product. There was a bit of spirit shown to keep the contest alive until the last minute, before we were all mercifully put out of our misery by Benrahma's emphatic penalty." Bournemouth defender Chris Mepham told Sky Sports: "In the second half if one team were going to get a goal, it felt like it would be us. "It's going to be tough for a newly promoted team in the Premier League against good opposition. In the main the games are really tight." On the goal, he said his arm was in a natural position. We weren't enough with the ball in the first half. I also think there was a foul in the build-up to it as well which was more subtle. They're in both at his stomach and move to the ball. Said Benrahma was recalled to the West Ham side for the visit of Bournemouth. On what he spoke to the referee about at full-time, O'Neil said: "We disagree [on the penalty]. "With the handball, I can't even believe we have to discuss it.
David Moyes has been a vocal critic of VAR this season but his West Ham side were on the fortuitous side in their victory over Bournemouth.
Returning from Qatar to a relegation battle would offer less of a lure with which to attract any new signings in the January transfer window. Moyes’ side have just three Premier League fixtures left prior to the World Cup. Zouma’s goal was the more pivotal, however. He will have been glad on this occasion that video referee Mike Dean hadn’t. It was after Solanke went down for a second time in the 45th minute and was replaced by Kieffer Moore that the disruption of play was followed by West Ham’s opening goal. O’Neil was clearly horrified that Kurt Zouma’s opening goal just before half-time was allowed to stand in spite of replays clearly showing that the ball bounced up off the hand of Thilo Kehrer as a West Ham corner came in.
Frenchman Zouma glanced the ball in from close range on the stroke of halftime after a goalmouth scramble with the effort being allowed after a VAR check ...
