Ahead of Tuesday's Premier League clash with Portsmouth, here's what on offer from JAXX, the club's official online sports betting partner ....
Portsmouth know West Ham United well, with manager Harry Redknapp and England trio David James, Glen Johnson and Jermain Defoe all familiar with the Boleyn Ground. The FA Cup finalists are on a roll, having won eight times on the road in the top flight this season and are still pushing for a UEFA Cup spot through the league regardless of their Wembley date next month. What's more, they have not lost to United in any of their five previous Barclays Premier League meetings.
It is about time that Alan Curbishley's side broke their duck against the south-coast club, who were denied victory at Fratton Park in October, thanks to a penalty save from England goalkeeper Robert Green. This time around, JAXX offer 27/20 for the Hammers to earn their seventh home league win of the season. There have been five draws at the Boleyn Ground this term and the odds for a sixth are 11/5. The London-based sportsbook offer 19/10 for a Portsmouth victory.
There is half-time and full-time betting available and it is worth considering a few stats when looking at this market. West Ham United have been in front at half-time just four times at the Boleyn Ground this term - and three of those games ended in draws. They have been behind at the break on five occasions and though coming from behind to beat Manchester United, United lost the other four games.
In seven games where there has been a stalemate at half-time, the Hammers have yet to lose at home, going on to win four times. It is 14/1 for the hosts to be in front at half-time and then to be pegged back by the end. For United to be winning at half-time and full-time, the odds are 29/10. Should the home side be leading at half-time, but somehow contrive to lose - something that has yet to happen this season - the odds are 24/1.
United have won by two clear goals on only two occasions at home this season. That might be worth remembering if having a bet in the handicap market. If you reckon Portsmouth will suffer an FA Cup semi-final hangover, the east London hosts can be backed at 7/2 to win by more than one goal. Pompey, with a goal start, are 9/20, but the draw (a West Ham United victory by a one-goal margin) is available at 27/10.
Don't forget, JAXX offer a plethora of markets for every West Ham United game, including a number of exclusive Season Specials. United are almost certain to get more than 49 points in total this season, according to JAXX, who offer 3/20 for Curbishley's side to break the 50-point mark. It is 2/1 that West Ham United finish the season in the top eight. United are 1/1 (evens) to finish above Tottenham Hotspur in the season-long match bet.
