Another decent Premier League clash this Sunday as Leicester City play host to West Ham and if the match betting is anything to go by there shouldn’t be a lot between the two.

Leicester are on offer at 2.87, with the draw at 3.50, while despite being the away side West Ham are just edging it at 2.37.

The faced-off in the league earlier this season and that ended in an easy 4-1 home win for West Ham, while this clash last season also went the way of the Hammers with a 0-3 away victory – you can back a 0-3 West Ham win at 26.00.

This season’s clash also saw a RED CARD (Leicester) so there could be come carry over from that, but for the neutral fans out there, the plus is that this game tends to produce goals.

The last six head-to-heads have ALL gone OVER 2.5 GOALS, while 6 of the last 7 meetings have seen BOTH TEAMS SCORE. You can back 3+ goals in the game at 1.72, with both Leicester and West Ham to score at a slightly worse 1.57.

The Hammers main striker- Antonio – has also had a habit of scoring in when facing Leicester. The Jamaican-born forward has been on target three times in the last three head-to-heads and can be backed at 6.00 (1st) or 2.40 (anytime).

The Leicester scorers are headed by Kelechi Iheanacho at 7.50 (1st) or 2.87 (anytime).

Overall, it’s a game that you can make a case for all three outcomes in the match betting, but even though – if pushed – we feel West Ham just edge it, the safer call id to avoid the match betting and stick with plenty of goals to be scored.

Both teams to find the back of the net is probably the call but at just 1.57 this isn’t a great price. Therefore, the 1.72 on there being OVER 2.5 GOALS scored in the game is the way we are going to play this one.

BEST BET: OVER 2.5 GOALS @1.72
