West Ham United Form Guide

West Ham United will be hoping that a home fixture at London Stadium will be the catalyst for the club to pick up their first Championship win of the season on Saturday and, by extension, make it four points from their opening two league games.

Ahead of Saturday’s fixture on Thursday afternoon, Nuno Espírito Santo reflected on last weekend's 2-2 draw against Burnley, speaking honestly with the press about failing to win the game: “We cannot ignore things. It's not what we do. We take a deep look at things and try to help the players to improve”.

Manor Solomon looked exceptional last weekend, scoring on his debut after signing from Tottenham, and his direct running and dribbling ability should be a joy to watch this season for the Hammers supporters.

Charlton’s Form Guide

Charlton ran out impressive winners against Derby County last weekend after falling behind in the 23rd minute after a goal from Sammie Szmodics. They left it late with a goal from Lloyd Jones in the 61st minute and Tyreece Campbell in the 80th minute to secure a win at The Valley.

The Addicks have been managed by Nathan Jones since his appointment in February 2024, when the club were in League One, ensuring their safety in the division with a fine run of form. By May 2025, he had led the club back to the Championship after a 1-0 playoff victory over Leyton Orient, before finishing 19th last season.

Tyreece Campbell will likely be the club’s biggest threat come the weekend off the back of his goal last weekend; his physicality and his counter-attacking threat will be their go-to for this game.

West Ham United v Charlton Prediction & Best Bet

Prediction: West Ham United 2-0 Charlton

West Ham United will be looking to set the record straight this weekend and continue their unbeaten start to the season with a win.

Charlton have had a positive start to their season and will be full of confidence ahead of this game.

I’m expecting a well-fought fixture, but a goal on either side of each half should give The Hammers t he three points.
