West Ham United - Crystal Palace betting tips and odds

Kickoff starts at 15:00 on 28/08/2021 played @ London Stadium refereed by Stuart Attwell

The odds are definitely leaning in the hosts’ favour, but this match is far from a done deal. Judging by odds alone, Crystal Palace may yet be able to walk away with a draw or even a surprise victory – though it’s still a longshot.

Though it may not be particularly attractive to punters, this match is at least easy to predict. Anything but a Home Win is probably wishful thinking for Crystal Palace, whose victory has been priced at a hefty 6.50.

West Ham United are coming off from a decisive home win against Leicester City that surprised a lot of people. The victory was far from impossible at odds of 2.60, but no-one saw the half time lead and the 4:1 victory coming.

The Eagles’s previous Premier League match ended with a home draw against Brentford. The 0:0 outcome was better for Crystal Palace than for their opponents, but fans are hoping for more decisive results in round 3.

The hosts have been careful not to let their goalscoring stats slip. They’ve scored more than 5 times during the last 3 matches, indicating consistent offensive results.

The visitors have to contend with several injuries. Eberechi Eze, Nathan Ferguson, James McArthur, Luka Milivojević are the players that will be missing, which makes the The Eagles lineup somewhat weaker than usual. This is made far worse because they were considered undergods going in either way.

You can safely put down an Over 2.5 Goals bet on this match and feel very confident. If the teams’ records are any indication, 3 or more goals in this match are almost guaranteed.
