There are sure to be plenty more twists and turns in the final weeks of the season.<\/p>\n

But, after their hard-fought and well-deserved win against Wolves<\/a>, West Ham<\/a>‘s players can at least breathe a sigh of relief as attention turns to their relegation rivals – Leeds United<\/a>, Nottingham Forest<\/a> and Spurs – for the rest of the weekend.<\/p>\n

Up first are Forest, who host Champions League-chasing Aston Villa<\/a> at 14:00 BST on Sunday, after a gruelling Europa League quarter-final first leg against Porto on Thursday.<\/p>\n

Later in the day, Spurs, as mentioned, will have to inflict just a fourth home defeat of the season on an impressive Sunderland<\/a> side if they are to move out of the relegation zone at the first time of asking.<\/p>\n

Leeds<\/a> – one point and two places above West Ham<\/a> – round off the weekend’s fixtures on Monday when they travel to Manchester United<\/a>.<\/p>\n

But it will not be easy against one of their fiercest rivals – Daniel Farke’s men have not won at Old Trafford in the league since 1981.<\/p>\n

A favourable weekend of fixtures for the Hammers then?<\/p>\n

It is little wonder West Ham<\/a> captain Jarrod Bowen admitted he would be keeping a close eye on the television over the weekend. <\/p>\n

“I’ve got three kids to entertain but I will keep an eye on the games,” added Bowen. “We have a bit of time before the game against Palace then go again.<\/p>\n

“The spirit, the togetherness is so important in this situation. You can always have quality, but you need grit and desire and a will to win through the whole squad.<\/p>\n

“The only thing we know as a club is to keep fighting and doing what we’re doing and take it into the next six games.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"There are sure to be plenty more twists and turns in the final weeks of the season.
