The Premier League heads to London Stadium for Round 32 as West Ham United host Wolverhampton. Kickoff is scheduled for April 10, 2026 at 19:00 UTC, with Jarred Gillett appointed as referee. On paper it’s tight, but the numbers give us a few clear themes to watch.

West Ham are favored in the full-time market at 4/5, with the draw at 11/4 and Wolves at 10/3. The Asian handicap leans the same way: West Ham -0.75 at 21/20. Gillett has shown plenty of cards across 327 matches (1,319 yellows, 28 reds), so discipline could matter in front of 59,623 seats in Stratford.

Team trends in numbers

Neither side has leaned on possession this season. West Ham average 42.2% of the ball, Wolves 43.2%, with both completing roughly 80% of passes. Crossing volume is high on both ends: West Ham have sent in 502 crosses, Wolves 571, with accuracy hovering around 22% and 27% respectively.

West Ham have scored 36 and conceded 57 across 31 matches, while Wolves stand at 24 for and 54 against. Clean sheets are level at four each, and both teams allow a lot of big chances (West Ham 82, Wolves 80). Finishing has been streaky: West Ham have 104 shots on target but 34 big chances missed; Wolves have 101 on target with 23 big chances missed.

Set pieces and direct play could be a factor. West Ham’s 156 corners and eight headed goals suggest a useful aerial route. Wolves counter with 99 corners and four headed goals, but they’ve also hit the woodwork 10 times. In transitions, West Ham look livelier with 36 fast breaks and five goals from them; Wolves have 16 fast breaks and two goals.

Projected lineups and Sofascore Rating notes

West Ham’s listed setup is a 4-4-1-1. Mads Hermansen starts in goal. The back four features Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Konstantinos Mavropanos, Axel Disasi and El Hadji Malick Diouf. In midfield, Jarrod Bowen and Oliver Scarles are out wide, with Tomáš Souček and Mateus Fernandes central. Up front, Pablo Felipe supports Valentín Castellanos.

Wolves are set in a 3-5-2. José Sá is in goal behind a back three of Yerson Mosquera, Santiago Bueno and Ladislav Krejčí. Jackson Tchatchoua and Hugo Bueno operate as wing-backs, with a midfield of Jean-Ricner Bellegarde, André and João Gomes. Adam Armstrong partners Mateus Mané in attack.

From a Sofascore Rating perspective, West Ham’s team average sits around 6.73; Wolves are close at 6.68. Among the listed starters, Mateus Fernandes (7.16) leads West Ham’s midfield for form, while José Sá (6.83) anchors Wolves from the back. Sofascore Rating runs to a perfect 10, and live values will update once the match kicks off.
