West Ham United to win
The Hammers bounced back to winning ways in the Premier League last weekend following an important 2-0 win over Wolves at the London Stadium. David Moyes’ side succumbed to a tight defeat at Everton before the international break and needed a reaction to that, of course, they got at home against the Wanderers. They will look to maintain the momentum against Fulham, who lost heavily 4-1 at home to Newcastle United, although they played the majority of the game with ten men.
Both teams to score
Both teams are good scoring teams. West Ham United have scored eight goals in their last four matches in all competitions while Fulham have notched seven goals in their last four games. The Hammers are averaging 2 goals per game and the Cottagers are averaging 1.75 goals per game. Both have good chances of scoring at least one goal each before the final whistle.
Over 2.5 goals
West Ham United’s backline is somewhat shaky. They have conceded seven goals and kept one clean sheet in their last six games in all competitions, averaging 1.16 goals per game. Fulham have conceded 13 goals in their last six games, averaging 2.16 goals per game. Looking at the stats here, both teams are likely to produce at least three goals.
Get Rich Quick
We talked about a reaction and keeping a momentum. Fulham were trounced by Newcastle United last weekend and as a result, they need a reaction against West Ham United, who are thinking about maintaining their momentum following their impressive 2-0 win over Wolves last weekend. Also, two of West Ham’s forwards suffered injury issues last time out, which would obviously weaken the Hammers chances of winning. This tie could be forced to settle in a score draw, an option with odds of 3.86 at 22bet.
