West Ham will host Leicester City in the Premier League on Monday, August 23. After the first matchweek, the Hammers are currently 9th, meanwhile Leicester are 11th in the league table.
Ahead of the game, BBC football expert Mark Lawrenson has stated his prediction.
"This is an interesting one. West Ham did the double over Leicester last season, with two Jesse Lingard goals inspiring their win at London Stadium.
"There is no Lingard this time, although I am expecting the Hammers to be busy in the transfer market before the window closes at the end of the month.
"West Ham got four goals away at Newcastle last week which will have given them a big lift, while Leicester did just enough to beat Wolves in their opener.
"This time? You could make a case for both teams to win it, but I have a feeling the points will end up being shared."
Lawrenson's score prediction: 1-1
