The last game of matchday 2 in the English Premier League sees West Ham host Leicester City on Monday night at the London Stadium.
Both teams are looking to maintain a perfect start to the 2021/22 season, after they registered wins on the opening day of the campaign.
The Hammers came from behind twice to beat Newcastle United 4-2 at St. James’ Park whilst a Jamie Vardy goal was enough for the Foxes to beat Wolves.
Leicester’s victory in front of the King Power faithful came one week after they lifted the Community Shield by sinking Manchester City.
West Ham have entered the season with a lot of optimism and frustration surrounding them – the former because they are set to play in Europe this season.
