Wasteful West Ham held to stalemate by Bournemouth

The Story So Far

West Ham United ended their home fixture against Bournemouth without a goal, missing an opportunity to move substantially closer to survival. This result leaves the club two points behind Nottingham Forest and four points adrift of Tottenham. Despite producing twenty shots and an expected goals figure of 2.82, the home side struggled with accuracy, recording only three attempts on target. A late scoring chance for a former Bournemouth striker was denied by the visiting goalkeeper, ensuring the match reached a scoreless conclusion. The Hammers were unable to find a breakthrough, leaving them in a challenging position in the league table.
