West Ham United vs Fulham live stream and match preview

Looking for a West Ham United vs Fulham live stream? We've got you covered. 

David Moyes’ men have had a good week. A 2-0 victory over Wolves last weekend saw West Ham climb out of the bottom three, before Gianluca Scamacca’s goal earned them a 1-0 victory over Anderlecht in the Europa League on Thursday. Moyes will hope that those results kick-start a positive run for his team, who face a hectic schedule ahead of the pause for the World Cup next month.

Fulham will be looking to bounce back from a 4-1 home defeat by Newcastle last time out. Nathaniel Chalobah’s early red card gave Marco Silva’s side a mountain to climb, and their opponents took full advantage of their numerical superiority. Fulham remain in the top half of the table, though, and that was the first time this season they have lost by more than a one-goal margin.

West Ham will be unable to call upon the services of Nayef Aguerd and Maxwel Cornet on Sunday, but Ben Johnson could be fit enough to return. Scamacca is likely to get the nod up top ahead of Michail Antonio after his goal in Belgium on Thursday, while Declan Rice and Lucas Paqueta will almost certainly return to the starting XI after beginning the Anderlecht game among the substitutes.

Fulham will have to make do without the injured trio of Layvin Kurzawa, Harry Wilson and Manor Solomon. Aleksandar Mitrovic, Kenny Tete, Willian and Antonee Robinson will all need to be assessed in the run-up to kick-off, but Chalobah will miss out through suspension.

VPN guide

Use a VPN to watch Premier League football from outside your country

If you’re out of the country for a round of Premier League fixtures, then annoyingly your domestic on-demand services won’t work – the broadcaster knows where you are because of your IP address (boo!). You'll be blocked from watching it, which is not ideal if you’ve paid up for a subscription and still want to catch the action without resorting to illegal feeds you’ve found on Reddit.

But assistance is on hand. To get around that, all you have to do is get a Virtual Private Network (VPN), assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs. A VPN creates a private connection between your device and t'internet, meaning the service can’t work out where you are and won't automatically block the service you've paid for. All the info going between is entirely encrypted – and that's a result.

There are plenty of good-value options out there, and FourFourTwo currently recommends:
