West Ham's Festive Slump: 6 Games Without A Win
27 Dec
Summary
- West Ham faces Fulham with a six-game winless streak.
- Fulham is in strong form, winning four of their last six matches.
- West Ham's 13 points at Christmas is their joint-lowest tally.
West Ham United is enduring a difficult festive period, currently on a six-game winless streak in the Premier League. Their current tally of 13 points at Christmas matches their lowest total from the 2010-11 season, a campaign that ended in relegation. This poor run suggests the squad is still adapting to head coach Nuno Espirito Santo's tactics.
In stark contrast, Fulham arrives at London Stadium in strong form. They have won four of their last six matches, accumulating 15 points since the start of November. Their recent away form has also improved, with two consecutive Premier League victories on the road.
This encounter pits West Ham's struggles against Fulham's momentum. The Hammers have lost all five London derbies this season, while Fulham's striker Raul Jimenez, who has a perfect penalty record, has a strong scoring record against West Ham.
