High-flying Bournemouth take on underachieving West Ham United in what should be a spectacular Premier League outing on Monday, December 16.
Bournemouth hope to extend their winning streak to four as West Ham travel south to wrap up the 16th round of the Premier League campaign. With plenty of drama on tap, I'm sticking with goals.
Here are my Bournemouth v West Ham predictions and soccer picks.
EPL predictions for Bournemouth vs West Ham
My best bet:
Bournemouth team total Over 1.5 (-170 at TonyBet)
My analysis
Bournemouth have won three consecutive games and now sit seventh in the Premier League table.
They hope to force themselves into Europe at the end of the season, so matches like this against West Ham are vital to win at home. Bournemouth have looked well equipped as of late, beating the likes of other troubled teams in the league. Their three straight victories started with a 4-2 win over Wolves and continued with an important 1-0 defeat of Spurs on home soil, only to finish with another 2-1 away triumph vs. Ipswich.
Bournemouth are creative and will look to punish an inconsistent West Ham side whenever the opportunity arises.
Despite narrowly beating second-from-bottom Wolves 2-1 last weekend, West Ham currently sit 14th in the Premier League standings on just 18 points from 15 matches. They are just six points clear of the relegation spots, well behind what they had planned for this year.
There have been Over 2.5 goals in five of Bournemouth's last six matches. West Ham is not a defensive wall either, with Over 2.5 goals scored in seven of their last nine games. Football fans should be entertained when Bournemouth and West Ham clash on Monday evening and I'll go for the home side hitting the net at least twice. TonyBet offers a great return that I can't miss.
Bournemouth vs West Ham same-game parlay (SGP)
Bournemouth TT Over 1.5
Over 5.5 bookings
Justin Kluivert 1+ goals
Chris Cavanagh will lead this game and he's known as a ref who often likes to empty his pockets. He's shown at least six cards in seven of his last 11 EPL games, with noticeable eight, nine, and 13 bookings on three occasions. The stage is set for an intense game at the Vitality Stadium and this can easily help Kavanagh add to his total.
Justin Kluivert is Bournemouth's top scorer this season with five goals. He's ever-present and dangerous in the opposite box, so I won't miss him from my parlay.
