West Ham United Brighton & Hove Albion betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The scenario we envision for this game will be for both teams to score at least one goal. We believe that this match will be very disputed and with some moments of open game, being expected that the teams dominate in different phases of the game. Note that the last games of these teams in these conditions ended with several goals in the final score. In this way, the teams must try to take advantage of the defensive failures of the opponent, so betting in favor of the goals in this match is of enormous value.

In this home match, manager Slaven Bilic is expected to play in 4-4-2, benefiting ball possession and long balls for the attack, especially for striker Chicharito: this player is very mobile and skilled at finishing. 
Still, it is important to note that West Ham presents some difficulties in maintaining ball possession and organization of its block. 
For this game the coach can not count on Carroll, punished, besides Collins and Henry, both injured.

Confirmed Lineup: Joe Hart, Pablo Zabaleta, Arthur Masuaku, José Fonte, Winston Reid, Cheikhou Kouyaté, Michail Antonio, Pedro Obiang, Manuel Lanzini, Javier Hernández, Marko Arnautović.
Coach: D. Moyes.

Analysis Brighton

The away team is currently in the 14th position of the league, with 8 points won, after 2 wins, 2 draws and 4 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against Arsenal, by (2‑0). In the last match, they tied in a home match against Everton, by (1‑1). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, since they have won 1 point in away matches and 7 points at their stadium, with 5 goals scored and 4 goals conceded at home, against 1 goal scored and 6 conceded in away matches.

In this competition, they haven’t won any of the last 4 away matches. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 6 of the last 8 matches for this competition. In their away matches there is a tendency for few goals, since 17 of the last 28 matches have ended with Under 2,5 goals.

Brighton arrives in this match with a 1-1 draw against Everton, adding the second consecutive game without winning in this competition: Knockaert scored the only goal of the team. 
Usually coach Chris Hughton plays in 4-2-3-1, privileging the defensive organization and counterattacks, especially through the runners: March and Knockaert are very fast and competent in the 1x1. 
Of note is that the away team has some flaws in the aerial game and defensive set pieces. Apparently the coach can not count on Hemed, suspended, in addition to Sidwell and Duffy, these by injury.

Confirmed Lineup: Mathew Ryan, Gaëtan Bong, Shane Duffy, Lewis Dunk, Dale Stephens, Anthony Knockaert, Davy Pröpper, Pascal Groß, Glenn Murray, José Izquierdo.
