Jamie Carragher predicts West Ham to qualify for European football

The first matchday of the Premier League is over and West Ham are currently fourteenth in the league table. In the first match, West Ham started their season with a 2-1 defeat against Aston Villa. However, Aston Villa are a top team and they will play Champions League football this season. 

With new manager Julen Lopetegui, West Ham also have huge ambitions to qualify for playing European football this season. But for that, the Hammers will need to play better than teams like Newcastle United, Aston Villa, Manchester United and Tottenham, who are also aiming for a top six finish in the Premier League. 

Now, former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher has revealed his prediction for the Premier League season as well. Asked about the team that will qualify for Europe apart from the Champions League, Carragher predicted West Ham to qualify for European football this season above teams like Newcastle United and Tottenham. Speaking about West Ham, Carragher said,

“A bit of a disappointment to start the way they have but I actually like some of the signings that they’ve made. I’m saying a European contender, they were that under David Moyes, they won a European trophy so you know they’ve been there or thereabouts.”
