The Gameweek 32 opener – and the first Premier League fixture since 22 March! – is West Ham United v Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Victory for the Hammers would take them out of the bottom three, at least until Sunday afternoon.

Kick-off at the London Stadium is at 20:00 BST.

TEAM NEWS

West Ham boss Nuno Espirito Santo makes five changes to the side that started against Leeds United in the FA Cup.

Mads Hermansen, Konstantinos Mavropanos, Tomas Soucek, Pablo Felipe and Crysencio Summerville are recalled for the hosts.

Alphonse Areola, Soungoutou Magassa, Freddie Potts and Adama Traore drop to the bench, while Max Kilman is not in the matchday squad.

Jean-Clair Todibo and Callum Wilson are back from injury and among the substitutes.

Wolves’ team news is much more straightforward: Angel Gomes comes in for the benched Mateus Mane, so his 14-match run in the starting XI comes to an end.

LINE-UPS

West Ham United XI: Hermansen, Walker-Peters, Mavropanos, Disasi, Diouf, Soucek, Fernandes, Bowen, Pablo, Summerville, Taty

Subs: Areola, Wilson, Adama, Todibo, Magassa, Wan-Bissaka, Scarles, Potts, Kante

Wolverhampton Wanderers XI: Sa, Mosquera, S Bueno, Krejci, Tchatchoua, Andre, J Gomes, H Bueno, Bellegarde, A Gomes, Armstrong

Subs: Bentley, Wolfe, Hwang, Tolu, Lima, R Gomes, Toti, Mane, Edozie

  4. Pep Roulette

    I feel people doing FH33 while not affecting their team for the rest of the gameweeks are going to benefit the most

    1. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      6 days, 6 hours ago

      Hope so, it was the only chip I had left 😀

    2. Drop Dead Tsimikas

    2-0 Hammers

  7. Royal5

    How many defcons does Bowen need to get point?

    1. L'Aeroplanino
      • 9 Years
      6 days, 6 hours ago

      12

      1. Royal5
        • 14 Years
        6 days, 6 hours ago

        Ty, was hoping for 10 as a striker

    2. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      6 days, 6 hours ago

      12 for 2

      1. Royal5
        • 14 Years
        6 days, 6 hours ago

        12 is pretty high for a fwd

  8. JBG
    • 7 Years
    6 days, 6 hours ago

    Boohoo, not Bowen

  9. thobe230

    I've got all chips left, 7 doublers for GW33 with 1 FT left.

    I'm thinking TC Haaland this week, FH GW34, then WC35. I can't see anyone mentioning this as a strategy though, am I missing something?

    1. Utopsis
      • 6 Years
      6 days, 5 hours ago

      TC seems a waste this week with so many doublers, TC in 36 seems better

      1. thobe230
        • 14 Years
        6 days, 5 hours ago

        Yeh TC36 does look good. Guess I can still do that, just do FH34, WC35, TC36, BB 37/38.

        Come home strong

        1. Utopsis
          • 6 Years
          6 days, 5 hours ago

          Lol you probably need to use a chip in 33!

    • 15 Years
