West Ham vs Bournemouth Betting Tips &— Over 2.5 Goals

Both teams enter Thursday’s match with ample reasons to be assured of their odds of securing a crucial win.

West Ham continues to be a formidable team at the London Stadium, with a record of four wins and just one loss in their last eight home EPL matches. They haven’t been defeated in their last five home games. However, in a surprising turn of events, they were held to a 0-0 draw by Brighton in their most recent fixture at the London Stadium.

Currently ranking sixth in the English Premier League (EPL), the Hammers are still hopeful for a European qualification. However, they are up for a considerable challenge against a rejuvenated Bournemouth team led by Spanish manager Andoni Iraola. The Cherries, who have won four out of their last five EPL away games, are traveling to London. They’ve now climbed to the 12th position in the division, a comforting nine points away from the dreaded relegation zone.

When Bournemouth is on the road, it’s typically expected that there will be goals scored. In this season’s English Premier League (EPL), nine out of ten away games involving Bournemouth have seen over 2.5 goals. While West Ham’s performance in the goal markets is less steady, it’s difficult to imagine a repeat of their recent lackluster match against Brighton. In all of their last 43 away games in the Premier League, Bournemouth has never had a scoreless draw.

Predicting the outcome of this match is challenging as both teams are performing well. It’s likely to be an engaging game with goals from both sides. West Ham has managed to prevent their opponents from scoring in their last three home games. However, Bournemouth’s impressive away performance indicates that there will be goals. They have only been unsuccessful in scoring in one away match this season.

Considering the factors mentioned above, I’m taking a chance on over 2.5 goals with an expectation that we should also see BTTS at the London Stadium.
