Bournemouth vs West Ham: Betting Insights, Preview, and Predictions

Bournemouth is flying under the radar this season, just three points off the top four—a pretty amazing feat for a club still seen by many as the smallest to ever play in the Premier League. With three straight league wins, including impressive home victories over Arsenal, Manchester City, and Spurs, the Cherries are showing they can hang with the league’s best.

Their recent form makes them strong favorites here, even though they haven’t won any of their last six matchups with West Ham. Bournemouth’s confidence is sky-high after a thrilling late comeback against Ipswich last weekend, where they turned around an 85th-minute deficit for the second time this season. Now, they’re aiming for their first four-game Premier League winning streak in nearly a year.

While West Ham’s situation might seem a bit gloomy, they’re only six points behind Bournemouth. A 2-1 win over Wolves last Monday likely took some pressure off manager Julen Lopetegui, but their poor away form is still a worry. The Hammers have only won one of their last six Premier League away games, letting in three or more goals in three of their last four.
