West Ham United - Everton betting tips and odds

The odds are definitely leaning in the hosts’ favour, but this match is far from a done deal. Judging by odds alone, Everton 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 The Toffees, whose victory has been priced at a hefty 5.00.

West Ham United had a difficult trip in the last round of the Premier League. Despite being the 3.00 underdogs, they kept their rivals on their toes for the first 45 minutes. However, things went south in the second period when they went a goal behind and recorded a Wolverhampton Wanderers defeat.

Everton fans at their home stadium were quite pleased when their team took the lead in a game against Southampton, who are considered more or less equal in terms of strength. However, their excitement was quickly cut short during the sub-par second half. The lack of decisiveness cost them the game in the end, as Southampton walked off with a 1:2 away victory.

The last 3 times we saw The Hammers play as the away team, they had serious issues stopping the ball from getting into their net, conceding more than 5 times. Hopefully, they’ll have better luck at home.

The visitors’ main concern will be cutting down the concession rate. They conceded more than 5 times in their latest 3 matches, and bucking the trend will be a great step in the right direction.

With more than half the season behind them, West Ham will have to up their game if they want to avoid relegation. This match is a rare opportunity to earn the 0 points they need to move up.

The Toffees have only one goal right now – to get out of the relegation zone, and quickly. Doing so is easier said than done, however, with a very difficult matchup at West Ham in their way. There’s close to half the season ahead of them, but this time can go by quickly if they’re not careful.

Though the odds are clearly in the hosts’ favour, the head-to-head history for this Premier League clash tells a different story. The Hammers lost the last time these two teams met on the pitch, so an upset is definitely possible.

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.
