Competition: Premier League
Market: Both teams to score
Chances: 5/6 @888sport
With two teams still firmly looking back at the drop zone, Bournemouth will welcome West Ham to Vitality on Sunday afternoon.
Starting with the hosts last seeing a terrific game away to the top four contenders to win Tottenham, Bournemouth are in the middle of what was a stellar purple spot. After pulling out a remarkable 3-2 win in north London, the mood in Gary O’Neill’s camp should be at its peak. Having skyrocketed their way up the Premier League table and looking to make another statement at the top level, the Cherries have won four of their last six matches. After marking their comeback from the March international break with a 2-1 home win over Fulham, the Sunday hosts also amassed nine points from their previous four Premier League fixtures. Over the past few weeks, O’Neal’s team has really found a clinical advantage in the last third and has also built a reputation for their hard work. It should be emphasized that Bournemouth have seen five of the last seven Vitality finishes with both teams scoring.
As for the visitors who clinched their ticket to the European Conference League semi-finals at the start of the week thanks to a 4-1 row against Gent, West Ham managed to find decisive momentum at a vital moment. David Moyes’ men, who were last seen in the Premier League making a brilliant return to home soil in a 2-2 draw against title contenders Arsenal, have now lost only one of their last nine matches in all competitions. Given that this streak began on March 2, West Ham should be excited about their latest encounter with the hosts on Sunday. Claiming a 2-0 victory when they welcomed Bournemouth into the London stadium on 24 October, the neutrals could get a nice clash this weekend. Since the Hammers have completed four of their last five games with both teams scoring, we expect a similar result from the south coast.
Bet: Both teams to score 5/6 Bournemouth v West Ham in Premier League Sunday @ 888sport
