West Ham United - Arsenal predictions

A mere glance at the betting odds for this match should tell you most you need to know. A home win here is almost an impossible outcome, so it’s not very likely we’ll see solid betting opportunities in the 1X2 market.

1.46 on away win might not sound too much but that’s what you get in a game where Arsenal are seen as absolute favourites to beat West Ham United. Away matches are always taken with a pinch of salt but anything other than a sweet victory for the visitors would be a first-class surprise.

The 0:2 result of The Hammers’s previous outing was quite surprising, to say the least. Playing as visitors against heavily favoured Newcastle United , they secured a lead in the first half against a far stronger opponent, catching them by surprise.

The Saturday’s away team heads into this Premier League match on the back of a solid HT/FT home win (3:0) over Nottingham Forest. It was a rather straightforward triumph during which The Gunners went ahead early on and never let their lead get in danger.

The Hammers’s recent Premier League away games were marked by a lot of concessions – 7 over the last 3 matches, to be exact. Therefore, betting on goals might be a fairly reasonable option here.

Arsenal have scored 8 times in their previous 3 games. If their attacking line continues the fine scoring form, the Over markets seem like a sure bet.

Online bookmakers sees The Gunners as favourites to claim victory in this Saturday game. The visitors are in a fine stretch of form which took them up to the Champions League places and 22 points behind the current league leaders.

The Hammers recorded several consecutive victories against Arsenal last season, so they just may be able to beat the odds and come out on top in this matchup. Although the victories were recorded in the previous season, all of them were won with at least 2 goals ahead.

Fortunately, none of the teams’ players has been injured or suspended recently. With their full lineups at their disposal, we’re in for an exciting match.

An Away Win is an easy choice here with the 1.50 odds. Despite playing as visitors, The Gunners are coming into this matchup as hard favourites so betting against them would likely spell disaster.
