Fresh West Ham can make extra firepower count

Premier League
7.45pm Tuesday

The fixture schedule has been incredibly harsh on West Brom, who held Arsenal to a 1-1 draw on Sunday but now face a fresh West Ham side who had the weekend off and should make that pay.

Both sides are playing with more attacking intent since changing their managers but while West Ham have notched seven times in their last three league matches, travelling West Brom have scored only eight in their last 12 fixtures.

The extra firepower of the hosts, who also have Andy Carroll and Javier Hernandez to come off the bench, should be the difference.

Recommendation
West Ham
