Bet of the week

This week, there's the definition of a relegation six-pointer, with 17th place West Ham meeting 18th placed Southampton! Both sides are greatly underperforming this season, and have new managers trying to save their teams from relegation (Moyes and Hughes). They both lost 3-0 in their most recent PL game too, but West Ham were unlucky not to be ahead in the first half, and their second half collapse was partly due to a crowd invasion that the players and manager have since admitted disrupted their focus. James Collins in a recent interview stated "I think the trip’s (six-day break to Florida) going to have a positive effect and coming back here now, there’s a buzz about the place."

Southampton on the other hand were deservedly beaten by Newcastle which led to the sacking of Pellegrino. Hughes has come in, beating Wigan 0-2 in the FA Cup in his first game, so it's possible the mood could have improved in the Saints' camp. However, against a West Ham side who are fighting for their lives in front of their own fans, this is going to be a different proposition.

West Ham's home record is: W5-D4-L5
Southampton's away record is: W2-D6-L6

With so much at stake, I expect Hughes will set his team up "not to lose". West Ham will be nervous too, considering their position and recent events. I think though, being able to take West Ham on the draw-no-bet as the home team at odds above evens presents some value.

Bet: West Ham +0 (AH) @ 2.07 (BetVictor)

Finally, the Asian Handicap picks I've gone for in @costanza's awesome weekly competition are:

Crystal Palace +1
Swansea +1.5
West Ham +0
Everton +1.5
Stoke City +1.5

Thanks for reading, and good luck with your FPL and bets this week!

A very comfortable win for West Ham in the end gets the first BotW win after two frustrating pushes. If I'd gone for Crystal Palace on the +1 handicap for a third time, it would have been the third push in a row as they lost 1-2 to Liverpool! Anyway, hopefully this is the first of many wins :).

I totally agree with you about West Brom and burnley , I don't expect much goals from the fixture

As can often happen with games involving Burnley, it didn't really deserve as many goals as it saw.

Yes, I was surprised

West Ham was a very good choice
good job - thanks
