Bournemouth vs West Ham Prediction

Bournemouth Form

Bournemouth endured a tough spell in their previous three matches, which brought three defeats. They lost 2-0 against Crystal Palace, before Manchester United won 0-1, while Everton claimed all three points in a 1-0 win. Bournemouth only pulled off two wins from a possible six in recent Premier League matches on home soil. Of the remaining four matches, they drew zero and lost four, as they scored seven and conceded 12 goals.

It has the look of a season in which a relegation battle will play a major part for Bournemouth, who naturally dream of extending their stay in the Premier League.

West Ham Form

Their past three matches saw West Ham beating Leeds 3-1, losing 2-1 against Leicester, and beating Fiorentina by 1-2. West Ham, meanwhile, won twice, while they've drawn zero and lost four in their last six away in the Premier League.

West Ham hope to be contesting for a place in an international tournament in a season, where a top half finish looks like the minimum outcome.

Both Bournemouth and visitors West Ham seem to struggle just a wee bit much right now, with keeping a clean sheet. We go out on a limb here and suggest that, both teams will find the back of the net.
