This is a classic end-of-the-season game in the Premier League, with both teams who are safe from relegation troubles and have nothing to worry about. Promoted Burnley were considered favourites to go down before the season started, but surprised everyone with stellar home form, and won no less than ten matches at their stadium. That enables them to be ranked 15th, and they would love to finish the successful season in style in front of their fans. Their recent form has been disappointing, though, and they won just twice in the last 14 matches. One wouldn't put money on them in such circumstances, as we can state in our Burnley vs West Ham preview.
West Ham hoped to end up in the top half of the Premier League, but their season was a major disappointment. The Hammers are in 12th place, and the future of the Croatian manager Slaven Bilic is in doubt. That should make them a bit more motivated, influencing our Burnley vs West Ham picks. And yet, the visitors are extremely inconsistent, and it's difficult to trust them as well. This game is totally unpredictable.
(Odds taken from Bet365)
Both Burnley and West Ham were not too potent in front of goal, and that makes the lines on over 2.5 goals rather generous at 1.95. In the last game of the season, though, the chances of goal fiest are always higher, and that is why such an outcome could be expected in our Burnley vs West Ham predictions. Since the odds are high, it's a good opportunity to use them, and you can even be bold and take the odds on over 3.5 goals at 3.40.
