WEST HAM have already had one 'save our season' game this season. They face another when Wolverhampton Wanderers come to Upton Park on New Year's Day.
The game has taken on even greater significance in the wake of Wolves' shock win over Liverpool at Anfield in the week, meaning the Hammers drop back to the foot of the table.
Couple that with valuable draws picked up by Birmingham City and Wigan Athletic, two of the league's other strugglers, and West Ham really must take three points from Saturday's clash.
Valon Behrami could return to the side after injury, while Herita Ilunga is expected to miss out after hobbling off against Everton on Tuesday.
A victory would take West Ham up to 20 points and could see them climb out of the bottom three, if other results go their way.
Log on for all the action from Saturday's game, including team news, a half-time update, full-time match report and post-match reaction.
