Under-pressure West Ham boss Julen Lopetegui will be in charge for Monday's must-win game against Wolves, live on Holasports.

The game at the London Stadium is effectively seen as a cup final for Lopetegui by the board.

The Spaniard arrived at the West Ham training ground on Thursday morning as the Hammers board continued to assess his future at the club following back-to-back defeats to Arsenal and Leicester.

Lopetegui fully believes he can improve West Ham's current situation, but results need to be better if he is to keep his job.

It is difficult to see how the 58-year-old will keep his job if West Ham lose to his former club on Monday.

West Ham majority owner David Sullivan tends to stand by his managers for as long as possible. Since he bought his stake in the club, West Ham have sacked four managers in 14 years.

The huge pressure on Lopetegui comes with West Ham 14th in the Premier League and six points above the relegation zone, while the most concerning aspect of performances has been the number of goals conceded - 27 in 14 league games.

Lopetegui succeeded David Moyes in the summer on a two-year deal, with the option for a further year.

When the ex-Real Madrid boss was hired by West Ham he was asked to do three things: integrate nine new signings - some with no experience at the highest level - change the system they were playing in to create more chances and win games on a more consistent basis.

Lopetegui is fully aware there is a lot of room for improvement but believes he is hitting two of those three objectives while also in the process of a rebuild.

West Ham had 31 shots in the 3-1 loss at Leicester, their highest-ever tally on record (since 2005-06) in a single Premier League match, but their shot conversion is just 8.7 per cent this season - the 16th lowest in the top flight.

The Irons, however, have won just five of their 16 games under Lopetegui leaving question marks over his future.

During the defeat against Leicester, West Ham's away support made their feelings clear about Lopetegui as they chanted "You're getting sacked in the morning".

It is thought sections of the West Ham board have lost faith in Lopetegui.
