Arsenal legend and former England international Paul Merson believes West Ham United's torrid start to the 2022/2023 Premier League season will continue as David Moyes' men visit Aston Villa this weekend.
A hat-trick of consecutive defeats against Manchester City, Nottingham Forest and Brighton see the Hammers glued to the bottom of the Premier League table as they only team yet to pick up a point.
And Merson, who enjoyed a four-year spell at Villa Park, fancies his former side to take all three points on Sunday despite Villa enduring a lacklustre start to the new campaign themselves under Steven Gerrard.
