West Ham will look to build on their impressive victory over Chelsea when they travel to Wolves tonight.
Aaron Cresswell’s winner at Stamford Bridge ended a run of seven games without a win for the Hammers – a sequence of results that piled the pressure on manager Manuel Pellegrini.
Three points in west London lifted West Ham to 13th in the table – four points clear of the relegation zone – but they face another stern test on the road against high-flying Wolves.
Nuno Santo’s side have risen to sixth in the Premier League, six points off fourth place Chelsea.

Team news
West Ham
David Martin will keep his place after this dream West Ham debut at Chelsea on Saturday.
Lukasz Fabianski is not expected to return until after Christmas but 33-year-old third-choice Martin has shown West Ham have a safe pair of hands until the Pole returns.
With just four days to prepare after Saturday’s win 1-0 against Chelsea, Manuel Pellegrini could bring back Sebastien Haller for Michail Antonio.
Pellegrini will also be wary of overloading Mark Noble ahead of the busy festive period. The West Ham skipper has played twice against Tottenham and Chelsea since suffering an ankle injury at Burnley last month.
Issa Diop is back from suspension but Angelo Ogbonna is likely to continue alongside Fabien Balbuena following his solid display at Stamford Bridge.
Manuel Lanzini is still three or four weeks away from returning to training after his fracturing his collarbone last month.
Possible Wolves XI: Patricio, Dendoncker, Coady, Kilman, Doherty, Neves, Moutinho, Jonny, Traore, Jimenez, Jota
Possible West Ham XI: Martin; Fredericks, Balbeuna, Ogbonna, Creswell; Rice, Noble; Fornals, Anderson, Snodgrass; Haller.
