Wolves remain in the bottom three despite a slight uptick in form under Julen Lopetegui post-World Cup 2022.

West Ham are outside the relegation zone on goal difference alone, and they would drop into the bottom three if they lose at Molineux.

This is an important match for two teams who are looking to pull clear of the bottom three.

Kick-off is at 3pm GMT. Make sure you know how to watch the Premier League wherever you are.

Team news

Wolves are without Pedro Neto, Chiquinho, Boubacar Toure and Sasa Kalajdzic.

Manager Julen Lopetegui makes five changes to the side which started at Nottingham Forest on Wednesday, with Nathan Collins, Hugo Bueno, Ruben Neves, Daniel Podence and Matheus Cunha all included, the latter making his first start for the club.

New signing Mario Lemina is on the bench alongside Chem Campbell, who has been out since November.

West Ham will be unable to call upon the services of Kurt Zouma, Alphonse Areola, Gianluca Scamacca and Maxwel Cornet, but Vladimir Coufal and Manuel Lanzini could be involved in some capacity.

Declan Rice starts for the Hammers on his 24th birthday, leading out the club on his 220th appearance.

Manager David Moyes makes three changes from the team which beat Brentford 1-0 in the FA Cup, with Vladimir Coufal, Pablo Fornals and Aaron Cresswell returning to the side at Molineux.

Wolves XI: Jose Sa; Nélson Semedo, Collins, Kilman, Bueno; Nunes, Ruben Neves, Joao Moutinho; Hwang, Matheus Cunha, Daniel Podence.

VPN guide

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

If you’re out of the country for a Premier League fixture, then you won't be able to watch on your domestic streaming service as usual. The broadcaster knows where you are because of your IP address (boo!) and blocks you from watching it. You can use a VPN to get around that, though, without resorting to illegal feeds you’ve found on Reddit.

A Virtual Private Network (VPN), assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs, creates a private connection between your device and t'internet, meaning the service can’t work out where you are and will let you watch. And all the info going between is entirely encrypted, anonymous and safe – and that's a result.

There are plenty of good-value options out there. For the Premier League, FourFourTwo currently recommends:
