West Ham faces Ipswich this weekend in what could be a crucial match for manager Julen Lopetegui. Just a few months into his tenure, Lopetegui is already under pressure following a disappointing start to the season, with only one win to their name despite a promising transfer window.
Fortunately for the Hammers, they have a favorable opportunity ahead as they take on Ipswich Town, who are still seeking their first victory since returning to the Premier League. The Tractor Boys, however, are currently on a mini unbeaten streak, having drawn their last four matches.
In his BBC column, Chris Sutton previewed the match and expressed confidence in West Ham’s chances. “This is tough. I’m not keen on giving credit to Ipswich, but they’ve really impressed me,” Sutton noted. “Right now, they’re a better-structured team than West Ham, as shown by their performance against Aston Villa last week. The only downside for them is that they haven’t secured a win yet.”
He added, “With the quality West Ham possesses, they should eventually find their rhythm, but it hasn’t happened yet. Although I hate to predict an Ipswich defeat, I’m going to stick my neck out and say the Hammers will finally get it together.”
Sutton emphasized the need for a strong performance from West Ham, especially given the high expectations following Lopetegui’s appointment. “West Ham fans aren’t the most patient, and they expect more than what they’ve seen so far.”
For West Ham to win, they’ll need to elevate their game. Ipswich has already secured points against teams like Aston Villa and Fulham, both currently in the top six. With Liam Delap in excellent form, West Ham must step up; otherwise, they could face a potential upset that would make Lopetegui’s challenging start even more precarious.
