Tony Pulis wary of West Ham United threat

West Bromwich Albion boss Tony Pulis has revealed that he expects West Ham United to rise up the Premier League over the next few weeks.

West Ham lost their first three league games of the 2017-18 campaign, but were victorious in their first home match of the season on Monday night - recording a 2-0 victory against Huddersfield Town.

West Brom will welcome the Hammers to The Hawthorns on Saturday afternoon, and Pulis has said that he is wary of a team that boasts "a lot of matchwinners".

"West Ham are a good side and I have a lot of time for Slaven. West Ham have got a lot of matchwinners in their squad. They might be where they are but I don't expect them to stay there," Pulis told reporters.

West From are currently ninth in the Premier League table having collected seven points from four matches this term.
