Bournemouth picked up a valuable point at Manchester United last Saturday despite playing the entire second half with ten men, but they are just five points above the drop zone as they prepare for a tough match against West Ham.

Only the Manchester clubs and Chelsea have beaten the Hammers in 2017 and Slaven Bilic's side will be a threat up front with Michail Antonio and Andy Carroll likely to start.

West Ham look set for a top-half finish and can expose Bournemouth's dodgy defence.

Recommendation
West Ham
2pts 9-5 general
