West Ham v Southampton: match preview

West Ham v Southampton
West Ham v Southampton: probable starters in bold, contenders in light Illustration: Guardian

West Ham produced an encouraging performance despite losing to Liverpool on Monday and David Moyes needs his struggling side to maintain that level when they host Southampton. However Saints are in good form and West Ham, who remain in the bottom three, have not won in the league since thumping Bournemouth on 1 January. It will not be easy for Moyes’s side, especially as they have lost Tomas Soucek to injury. Jacob Steinberg
