Ahead of Sunday's Premier League trip to Tottenham Hotspur, here's what on offer from JAXX, the club's official online sports betting partner ...
It is a game with a rich history and a fierce rivalry. The short journey to Tottenham sees West Ham United hoping to bounce back after two successive 4-0 defeats and to maintain or extend their eight-point advantage over their north London rivals, who sit eleventh in the Barclays Premier League, one position below the Hammers.
White Hart Lane has not been a happy hunting ground for West Ham United in recent seasons. Not since a 2-1 success 1999 have West Ham United taken all three points but the last six meetings there have yielded three draws and three defeats by a single-goal margin. This sequence has alternated between draw and defeat - pointing to it finishing honours even this time around. With JAXX, the Hammers are 18/5 to win and the draw is on offer at 49/20.
In the last ten meetings at White Hart Lane, neither side has won by more than one goal and in only two of those duels has there ever been more than two goals scored. Keep that in mind if playing the Overs/Unders market. If you think there will be more than 2.5 goals in total scored in the game, JAXX offer 4/5. It is the same price for fewer than 2.5 goals to be scored. The Unders has prevailed 80 per cent of the time in the last ten meetings at Spurs.
West Ham United are 4/5 with a goal start on the JAXX handicap market. If you believe Tottenham will win by two clear goals or more, you can get 21/10, but it is 49/20 for a Tottenham victory by a one-goal margin (i.e., a draw on the handicap). West Ham United's last two performances aside, they have been very difficult to beat.
Given that Tottenham are, themselves, coming off a 4-1 defeat at Birmingham City and a 1-0 reverse at the hands of Dutch leaders PSV Eindhoven in the UEFA Cup on Thursday, backing the draw or a West Ham United victory on the JAXX Double Chance market might seem attractive. The Hammers are 4/5. If you fancy Tottenham to either win or draw the match, JAXX offer 3/20. JAXX offer a plethora of markets for every West Ham United game, including exclusive Season Specials.
