Over 2.5 Goals
Over 2.5 goals were produced when these two sides clashed in September for their reverse league fixture. West Ham thrashed Wolves 4-0 that day, with Bowen netting a brace and the now-departed Haller getting one goal, while the unfortunate Raul Jimenez put through his own net. Four of West Ham's last six outings have produced over 2.5 goals, including their last game against Arsenal which ended up being a 6-goal thriller that ended in a draw.
BTTS
As we mentioned above, West Ham netted four times against Wolves when the pair last locked horns, but Wolves have scored in four of their last five games against the Hammers. Both teams have scored in three of Wolves' and three of West Ham's last six outings in the Premier League.
Tomas Soucek to Score
The Czech international midfielder top scores for West Ham this season with 9-goals in the Premier League alone. Soucek has almost double the number of league goals this season than Wolves' joint-top scores Neves and Neto, both of whom have scored five times so far. Soucek netted a hat trick for Czech Republic during the international break and scored in his last game for West Ham against Arsenal, so he is in excellent form in front of goal.

West Ham aiming to secure the domestic double over Wolves
Wolves' season has been disappointing overall, with a distinct lack of goals being the major issue. Even if Jimenez had been fit for the entire season and scoring goals, Wolves need to invest in a couple more players this summer that can carry a share of the goalscoring burden. The hosts are without a win in their last four league games and now face another tricky home game against a West ham side that are full of confidence. Both Jimenez and Marcal have been ruled out of Monday's clash through injury, while there are doubts over goalkeeper Patricio and Podence for the game against West Ham.
The Hammers have been a revelation in the Premier League this season, challenging for a top-six finish when many predicted mid-table obscurity for the Londoners. Moyes' men have picked up three wins from their last six matches and played out an epic 3-3 draw with Arsenal before the international break, so confidence remains high within the camp. West Ham claimed an impressive 4-0 win over Wolves earlier in the campaign and will be confident of their ability to outscore their goal-shy hosts on Monday. Ogbonna remains sidelined as does goalkeeper Randolph, while Fornals, Yarolenko and Masuaku could all return to the squad ahead of the trip to the Midlands.
