Bournemouth v West Ham predictions

Andoni Iraola and Julen Lopetegui were born in Basque towns less than 25 miles apart, but on the Premier League job security scale the two men couldn’t be much further apart .

At Bournemouth, Iraola is doing such a good job that there are rumors the club will tie him down to a long-term deal in the near future, while last week West Ham head coach Lopetegui took on fellow struggling Wolves in a match dubbed ‘El Sackico’.

West Ham at least eased the pressure on Lopetegui with a 2-1 win in this match on Monday, although the match was fairly even and a moment of quality from Jarrod Bowen bailed out the inconsistent Hammers.

And it doesn’t bode well for the Londoners that each of their previous four league wins this season has been followed by defeat in their subsequent Premier League mission.

Building on success has been difficult for West Ham, who have also been one of the most leaky teams in the division, losing 28 goals in 15 league matches.

Bournemouth, meanwhile, are comfortably nestled in the top half with their sights set on a European place after a sensational victory at Ipswich last Sunday.

The Cherries trailed 1-0 after Conor Chaplin’s 21st-minute goal, but super-sub Dango Ouattara set up Enes Unal after 87 minutes before scoring in the 95th minute to turn the match around.

It was Bournemouth’s third successive Premier League win following wins against Wolves and Tottenham, while they also beat Arsenal and Manchester City in October and November.

They are off to their best start to a Premier League season after 15 games, with 24 points accumulated, while West Ham have been in the bottom half of the table since the end of August.

Bournemouth looks like a strong enough pick to win this match, but bettors can get more value from the bet by combining it with over 2.5 goals.

Iraola’s progressive, attacking approach means only Man City have bettered Bournemouth’s Premier League tally of 241 shots ahead of this weekend’s matches, while West Ham’s 15 league matches have produced 48 goals, an average of 3.2 goals per match.

The Hammers cannot afford to sit idly on the south coast, but going forward they will be vulnerable to Bournemouth’s sharp counter-attacks, so expect a high-octane encounter at the Vitality Stadium .

Key statistic

West Ham’s last three games have all produced over 2.5 goals and they have lost two of them.

Bournemouth v West Ham band manufacturer’s predictions

Bournemouth winner
Bournemouth are aiming for a fourth consecutive Premier League win and should be too strong for a West Ham side lacking confidence.

Antoine Semenyo shoots on target
Antoine Semenyo has racked up 58 shots in the Premier League this season and he can direct an effort on target against the permeable Hammers.

Tomas Soucek commits two or more fouls
Only Lucas Paqueta (21) has committed more league fouls than Tomas Soucek (17) for West Ham this season and the Czech international may be forced into some scrappy challenges against the Cherries.
