Ahead of Saturday's trip to the north-east to take on Sunderland, here's what on offer from JAXX, the club's official online sports betting partner ...
West Ham United take on Sunderland at the Stadium of Light on Saturday, having beaten their hosts in five of the last six Barclays Premier League meetings.
While Dean Ashton's superb second-half header was enough to earn a point at Everton last weekend, Sunderland earned a remarkable 1-0 victory at Aston Villa and Roy Keane's side now feel that top-flight survival is possible. Alan Curbishley's men are bidding to do the double though over the north-east club, having won 3-1 when the sides met at the Boleyn Ground on 21 October.
West Ham United are on offer at 43/20 to win while the draw is available at 11/5. For those who believe in historical trends, perhaps the best bet of the weekend in the Barclays Premier League is to back 'Unders' on the total goals market. For in 13 Premier League games between Sunderland and West Ham United, no less than eleven of them have produced fewer than three goals.
Indeed, in Sunderland's last ten Barclays Premier League games, only once have there been more than two goals scored in total. So the 3/5 on offer with JAXX that there are fewer than 2.5 goals scored between the pair on Saturday may be of interest. It is 1/1 (evens) that more than 2.5 goals will be scored.
Although in tenth place in the table, the odds on offer for United to finish in the top eight are 5/2. It is 9/1 that Alan Curbishley's side finish in the top six. Tottenham Hotspur are five points behind and the odds on West Ham United staying in front of Spurs are 3/4.
JAXX offer Double Chance odds, where you can combine two outcomes. For instance, backing a Sunderland victory or a draw is on offer at 7/20, while backing West Ham United or a draw is on offer at 9/20. Don't forget, JAXX offer a plethora of markets for every West Ham United game, including a number of exclusive Season Specials.
