Betting Preview: West Ham – Liverpool (2/January/2016)

– Liverpool are very short away to West Ham. Especially since the new manager, they have shown great potential like beating Man City 4-1 away from home, and this is why the odds on them are so low, but they are just not consistent enough. They won 4-1 at City, 6-1 away to Southampton, but then they go on to lose 2-0 away at Newcastle and 3-0 away at Watford.

– West Ham had a great start to the season! They were in the top 4 for a while, beating many of the top sides, but then started sliding down the table when they got a few injuries to key players. However, despite their loss of their key attacking players, they are still a very difficult side to beat! However, they did win just 1. Their morale is very high after coming back from losing their 1st half to win their last match home against Southampton. Carrol scored the winning goal which will be a great boost for him!

Liverpool’s odds are far too low in my opinion, and I think this match will end in a draw. West Ham drew 5 of their last 6 matches, winning the 6th. In their last 8 matches, they drew 6. West Ham won the reverse fixture 3-0, but the key is that they kept a clean sheet. I think West Ham will be able to keep Liverpool out and this match will likely end 0-0, but I will go for a draw because 1-1 is also a good possibility.
