Bournemouth v West Ham Betting Preview

 

Both sides progressed to the Fourth Round of the FA Cup after beating Championship opposition. Bournemouth named a whole new starting 11 in their away win at Birmingham and West Ham scraped through with a 1-0 home victory against Wolves. It wasn't the finest performance from the Hammers, but that victory extends their unbeaten run in all competitions to eight games, winning the last three. As for Bournemouth, their victory means they've only lost one in the last nine in all competitions, so with both teams getting results this should be a cracker of a game.

 

The Cherries have completed the signing of striker Benik Afobe from Wolves. He didn't play in the Cup tie against West Ham as his move was being completed but he should make the squad for this one. He'll be a great signing too, he can score and he can create for others and I think he'll score enough to ensure Eddie Howe and his men are in the top tier next season. Fancy him scoring on his debut? The best odds for Afobe to score anytime against West Ham are 19/10 with Betfair. Juan Iturbe may not get clearance in time to make his debut, he is still waiting on his work permit to come through. Simon Francis will return after missing the Cup win through suspension, while Josh King faces a late fitness test on his hamstring.

 

West Ham team news vs Bournemouth: West Ham will be missing Manuel Lanzini, Victor Moses and Diafro Sakho. Dimitri Payet could make his first start after injury, he's done well in his substitute appearances as his return to fitness continues. The Hammers haven't won any of their last five Premier League away games and have scored just twice in those games, but that run coincided with star man Payet's absence. Now he's back West Ham will offer more of a creative threat. I think he'll start and I think Andy Carroll will too. He came off the bench to set up the winning goal in that Third Round clash and has scored in his last two Premier League games. Carroll has never scored in three in a row but I think he could achieve that here.

 

My first Premier League prediction for Bournemouth v West Ham is for Andy Carroll to score anytime and the best odds are 13/5 at Bet365.

In the reverse fixture back in August, Bournemouth won 4-3 in a thrilling encounter. Whether there are as many goals in this one it’s tough to say as both defences have improved. The Hammers haven't conceded more than one goal in a game since Novembers' defeat away at Spurs and Bournemouth have only conceded six goals in their last seven. Having said that, both sides are capable of scoring a few so with that in mind I think my second football tip is a dead cert.

 

Have a bet on both teams to score and over 2.5 goals for my next Bournemouth v West Ham prediction, the best odds for this one are 13/10 with William Hill.

As for the result, I think a draw is on the cards here. With both sides in decent form I think it's tough to see a winner in this one.

 

My last Bournemouth v West Ham prediction is for the match result to be a draw; the best odds are 13/5 at Bet365.
