West Ham are one of the Premier League’s on-form teams, having accumulated 12 points from the last 15 available as they prepare to face Brighton at home on Tuesday.
Both of these teams are vying for European qualification, with Albion coming into the game off the back of a 4-2 win over Tottenham, which halted a three-game winless streak.
The Hammers struggled for results at the London Stadium early on in the season, but they appear to have found their groove with 10 points in their previous four games.
