West Ham v Liverpool Betting Preview – Premier League 14th May 2.15pm

Liverpool have produced some frustrating results lately in their pursuit of a top-four finish and this isn’t an easy away game for them because the Hammers have decent form against them going in the capital. West Ham turned up, shook off average form and beat Spurs last weekend to ruin the Lilywhites’ hopes of catching Chelsea in the title race. Will they be a pain in Liverpool’s side on Sunday?

West Ham v Liverpool Betting Tips

West Ham have form against Liverpool having won their last three on the bounce against them at home across all competitions. The Irons are actually unbeaten in their last five against them (W3 D2) home and away. So can they upset Liverpool in this one? West Ham are unbeaten in their last five games and roused themselves to take a win over Spurs last weekend and they can now target a top ten finish. West Ham have actually picked up a clean sheet in each of their last three home games now and West Ham to win to nil at Bet365 in this one is a big price of 15/2 because of the scoring threat of Liverpool. Over 2.5 goals at bet365 is probably a safer bet at a price of 4/5 as three of the last four between these in London have gone that way. Only one of West Ham’s seven league wins this season have been against a side currently in the top half of the table (Tottenham). Manuel Lanzini has found the net in five of his last eight Premier League home games and he is a price of 9/2 in the anytime goalscorer market.

A tricky away game for Liverpool then, who have Roberto Firmino and DIvock Origi at 11/8 in the Bet365 anytime goalscorer market. Liverpool are carrying away form though with a three-match winning streak away from Anfield going, but they only played out a 2-2 draw with West Ham earlier in the season. That having been said, there hasn’t been a draw between these two in any of their last eleven meetings in London though. Liverpool have won three of their four games in London this season, drawing the other one, so they have a good record in the capital. However, they have kept just one clean sheet in their last 10 Premier League trips to West Ham and both teams to score at Bet365 is a quote of 4/5. Liverpool starts the weekend in third place but they have Man City really breathing down their neck and there’s a chance that Arsenal could still catch them too. They’re not over the line yet. Liverpool have gone W9 D5 L4 away from home this term.
