West Ham must get a much needed win today, according to BBC Sport pundit Chris Sutton.

Our Hammers take on Championship-bound Southampton at the London Stadium, with a feeling in east London that a corner is being turned under Graham Potter.

The recent loss to Liverpool was one that West Ham deserved a lot more from, having been on top for large parts of the game, however that form must be taken into todays clash with bottom-of-the-table Saints.

Speaking on BBC Sport, former player Chris Sutton feels a much needed 3-points will be delivered today, with a hope also that a dent can be made on our negative goal difference.

“Already-relegated Southampton are still trying to avoid taking one away from Robbie Savage’s Derby for the lowest Premier League points tally,” said Sutton.

“They need a point from their final six games to make it to 11 points and equal the Rams’ total from 2007-08, but they are not going to get it here.

“West Ham are not in any danger of going down but they will still certainly not want to finish 17th, which is where they are right now.

“They were decent against Liverpool last time out, and still lost, but they won’t have to play as well as they did at Anfield to take three points this time.

“Hammers boss Graham Potter could really do with a win, because their fans will want to finish a forgettable season with a bit of optimism, and they should have something to smile about on Saturday.

“As for the loyal and long-suffering Southampton fans, well I’ve said before how miserable this season has been for them. I think I’d have switched to supporting Bournemouth, Brighton or even Portsmouth by now.

“Being serious, I’ve got a lot of admiration for the travelling fans that have stuck with them through this, and I guess the consolation here is that they won’t have a long journey back from London to the south coast.” Sutton’s prediction: 2-0
