West Ham United - Leicester City betting tips and odds

West Ham United have a big mountain to climb. The task ahead is difficult but not impossible but with 3.10 slapped on home win in this match, this one is for the risk-takers.

Despite playing away, Leicester City are more likely to win this showdown than the hosts. It’s not a done deal, of course. Considering the betting odds for an away win are set at 2.46, we’re in for a close game.

Despite fighting an uphlll battle at Wolverhampton Wanderers in the last round, The Hammers came out on top with a narrow 2:3 win. They grabbed an early lead and kept up the pace until the bitter end, resulting in important three points at a tough turf.

It was hard for The Foxes fans to feel optimistic going into their previous home match. Despite playing on home turf, their opponents Manchester City were so heavily favoured that even the draw at half time can be considered a minor success for The Foxes. Ultimately, though, they lost the match hard (0:2).

West Ham have been struggling to keep the ball out of their net lately. For instance, their previous 3 Premier League matches were marked by more than 5 goals conceded in total.

Looking over the visitors and their recent history, we noticed they’ve scored more than 5 goals in their previous 3 appearances. This signals a consistent ability to score in most matchups, which is good news for their supporters.

With a 4th table position, West Ham are one of the most successful teams in the season so far. There’s still a bit of time for things to change, though, and they don’t seem likely of moving up to the top spot.

Leicester are in fairly strong form this season and will be on their way to the Champions League qualification if they keep up the current pace. They do have a shot at the title, mind you, but time is running out to earn the 18 points needed.

The visitors may seem to be favourites according to the odds, but the matchup’s history tells a wildly different story. They already clashed this season, and The Hammers pulled off an impressive victory and a major upset as far as betting predictions go.

The hosts weren’t considered likely to win either way, but they are in a slightly worse position now. Darren Randolph, Declan Rice, Andriy Yarmolenko have all been injured recently, leaving the team’s coach with a narrower range of options.

Our advice is to stay on the safe side and go for the Over 2.5 Goals market. It’s reliable, very probable, and available at odds of 1.98 if you use the Unibet sportsbook.
