West Ham Favoured to Beat Wrexham as Bowen Leads Hammers' Charge

A victory would send West Ham briefly to the top of the Championship.

Overview

  • The Championship match kicks off at 8pm BST on Friday at London Stadium and will be broadcast live on Sky Sports.
  • West Ham have won three straight league games and arrive as short-priced favourites in pre-match betting markets.
  • Jarrod Bowen is the focal attacking threat, leading the division for chances created and expected assists and driving West Ham's recent scoring form.
  • Wrexham have drawn four of their first six league matches but remain hard to beat away, and defender Max Cleworth is expected to miss the trip with injury doubts.
  • This is the clubs' first league meeting in about 45 years and the rare fixture has drawn extra attention because of Wrexham's rapid rise and high-profile ownership.
