Analysis of Sunderland vs West Ham
The Sunderland players have returned to the Premier League arena for the first time since the end of the First Release in the end of the 2016/17 season after the choking victory in the Play-off promotion final with Sheffield United in May. With an effort that could stay with the highest foggy tournament, coach Regis Le Bris and his colleagues worked very positively on TTCN to bring £ 130 million.
Although Sunderland won only 2 out of 9 friendly matches (drew 2, lost 5) during the 7-week season, most recently the 0-3 defeat at home to the Spanish team, Vallecano last weekend, coach Le Bris was confident that his team was “ready” for the top match and felt that “the thinking of the players has changed” before the match against West Ham.
On the opposite field, West Ham is preparing for the 14th consecutive season in the English Premier League and is the first complete campaign under the guidance of coach Graham Potter, the replacement of Julen Lopetegui from January and brought The Hammers out of the risk of relegation last season, although not really convincing.
Indeed, Potter has not really brought satisfaction to NHM after winning only 5 out of 18 Premier League matches, thereby ensuring the 14th position for West Ham. The 50 -year -old strategist admitted that his West Ham was still “in the process of perfecting” to look forward to a new season with many challenges, after breaking up with many pillars such as Vladimir Coufal, Aaron Cresswell, Michail Antonio and especially Mohammed Kudus.
Many new faces have come such as El Hadji Malick Diof, Kyle Walker-Peters, Callum Wilson and Mads Hermansen are expected to quickly catch up with the team. Besides, the friendly achievement of The Hammers is also acceptable, when they win 3, draw 1 and lose only MU this summer.
