A powerful West Ham team seemed somewhat different from the one that Fulham had thrashed 5-0 at Craven Cottage seven days earlier. Less than ten minutes after Kudus' incredible shot from the outside of the box, the Ghanaian forward calmly finished close to goal to put the Hammers solidly up at halftime. Following the interval, Wolves put more pressure on the game, but Jarrod Bowen's 10th Premier League goal of the year in the 74th minute secured the victory.

The home team of David Moyes appeared to be well rested following their 2-0 victory over Freiburg on Thursday, which guaranteed them a spot in the Europa League round of 16. With this victory, Wolves remain in 13th place in the Premier League, ten points above the relegation zone, while West Ham climbs to eighth place.
