West Ham v Manchester United Betting Tips – Premier League 10th May 7.45pm
West Ham go into this midweek home game five points clear of the drop zone having beaten Leicester at the King Power on the weekend. That should just be enough to get themselves to safety at the end of the season. Manchester United had a bad day at the office on Friday night as they lost at Brighton, so will be looking to bounce back from that as they look for a point to guarantee second place.
West Ham News and Form
The Hammers got themselves a good 2-0 win at Leicester on the weekend and that was enough to secure a place in next season’s’ top flight. So the pressure is off of their shoulders now and it was an important win because it snapped a run of four games without a win for them (D2 L2). West Ham’s last two games of the season are both on soil and their record there this season is W6 D5 L6 for the season. The Irons have lost just two of their last eight on home soil in the top flight (W3 D3) so they haven’t done all that bad there at all really. However, at home this season they have lost their other three matches against the current top four and the Irons conceded heavily in each of those. But they did also score in each of those defeats so both teams to score at bet365 is at 3/4 odds* (Betting Odds taken at 3:17 a.m. on May 7th, 2018). They can just try and enjoy themselves here and boss David Moyes would probably like to get one over his former club.
Manchester United News and Form
Manchester United suffered a surprise loss at Brighton last time out but still look well set for a second place finish. The Red Devils are W7 L2 in their last nine league games and they have scored at least two goals in each of those wins. In the bet365 correct score market a Manchester United 2-1 win is at 8/1 odds* (Betting Odds taken at 3:17 a.m. on May 7th, 2018). Manchester United are W10 D3 L5 for the season but their returns have been a little mixed lately away from Old Trafford going W3 L3. In each win in that sequence though they did score at least two goals. So it is worth having a look over 2.5 goals to crop up in the game as well. Manchester United have won just three of six away games at the current bottom seven in the league, which makes for surprising reading as you would expect them to go and dominate teams at the bottom of the table. Four of Manchester United’s six defeats this season in the top flight have been by a 1-0 scoreline and five of them have been by a one-goal margin. The Red Devils have averaged 1.7 goals per away game but may not be at full strength for this one up front.
West Ham v Manchester United Head to Head

Both teams have scored in five of the last seven meetings but it hasn’t happened in the last two.
