Stoke City and West Ham are neighbours in the table, with just a point separating them. Neither are totally safe from relegation, but both have very good chances of staying up. This makes the game rather unpredictable, but West Ham are in better form recently. West Ham are unbeaten in three matches and were close to beating Everton in the last fixtures. Stoke City, on the other hand, lost five out of their last six matches, and their motivation seems a bit low.
Stoke City are not approaching the game against West Ham in the best mood, and it makes sense to try and explore the relatively high odds on West Ham. The visitors could possibly consider marginal favourites here, but they are the underdogs according to the odds, and that makes betting on Wesst Ham a decent option. The odds stand at 3.30. It should also be noted that at least one team fail to score in most of the recent matches of both Stoke City and West Ham. That is especially true as far as Stoke City are concerned – one of the teams failed to score in eight of their last eleven matches. The odds on such an event are very good at 2.10.
