West Ham United have endured a poor start to the 2025/26 season, with the side's home form being a key reason for the struggles.

Graham Potter has been sacked by West Ham just five games into the new season. Saturday’s 2-1 defeat to Crystal Palace at the London Stadium was West Ham’s third home loss of the campaign, with all three coming against London rivals.

British taxpayers will have to foot a bill to the tune of £2 million (€2.27m/$2.62m) if West Ham are relegated from the Premier League this season. The Hammers are currently 19th in the league table after enduring a torrid season which is yet to pick up following the appointment of manager Nuno Espirito Santo as Graham Potter’s successor.

West Ham slipped to their fifth home defeat in a row and deeper into trouble as Brentford stormed to a 2-0 win at the London Stadium.
