West Ham United have a long wait before returning to Premier League action following their 1-1 draw with Aston Villa.
The Hammers’ point at the London Stadium against the Villans saw them climb out of the relegation zone up to 17th, but only on goal difference, missing the chance to go up to 14th and two points clear of the drop zone.
Due to the FA Cup, West Ham ’s scheduled trip to Manchester City this Sunday has been postponed, meaning David Moyes’ side will not return to action in England’s top-flight for another 19 days, when they host current bottom side Southampton.
