West Ham United v Swansea City: match preview

West Ham United v Swansea City
West Ham United v Swansea City: probable starters in bold, contenders in light

Slaven Bilic finds himself under far more pressure than Paul Clement even though West Ham only lie a point below Swansea. Bilic desperately needs a win after last week’s defeat to Tottenham and it is likely to be a tense afternoon at the London Stadium. Swansea have lacked a goal threat this season, but they held Spurs and have been tough to break down away from home. Jacob Steinberg
