West Ham United welcome European hopefuls Bournemouth to the London Stadium for a Premier League clash on Saturday afternoon.
Both teams suffered defeats in midweek, with the Hammers losing 1-0 a Wolverhampton Wanderers on Tuesday, 24 hours after the Cherries suffered a surprise 2-1 home defeat to relegation-threatened Ipswich Town.
While Graham Potter‘s side currently sit 16th in the top-flight standings, Andoni Iraola‘s men sit 10th and seven points behind the top five with eight games remaining.
Here, Sports Mole takes an in-depth look at the head-to-head record and previous meetings between the two sides.

Head-to-head record
Previous meetings: 21
West Ham wins: 9
Draws: 8
Bournemouth wins: 4
West Ham United and Bournemouth have faced each other a total of 21 times across all competitions and it is the Hammers who marginally lead the overall head-to-head record having posted nine wins to the Cherries’ four, while there have also been eight draws played out between the two clubs.
Their first two meetings took place back in February 1929 when West Ham beat Bournemouth – known then as Bournemouth and Boscombe – 4-2 over two legs in the fifth round of the FA Cup.
Sixty years then passed before they would butt heads again in the old Division Two, with a 1-1 draw at Bournemouth followed by West Ham winning 4-1 on home soil in the reverse fixture at Upton Park under former boss Billy Bonds.
Nine years later, shortly before the turn of the century, West Ham beat Bournemouth 2-0 in an EFL Cup third-round home tie courtesy of goals from Marc Keller and Frank Lampard – the only other EFL Cup meeting between these two teams took place in August 2024 when the Hammers claimed a narrow 1-0 second-round win thanks to an 88th-minute winner from Jarrod Bowen.
In the Premier League, West Ham and Bournemouth have faced each other 15 times, with the Cherries winning the first of those by a thrilling 4-3 scoreline at the London Stadium in August 2015 thanks to a Callum Wilson hat-trick.
Bournemouth accumulated 14 points from their first eight top-flight encounters with West Ham (W4 D2 L2), but since then they have failed to win each of their last seven league meetings with the Hammers, losing four of those – including two 4-0 defeats – and drawing each of their last three by a 1-1 scoreline.
