MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL: The Striker previews Monday’s Premier League clash between WEST HAM v LEICESTER with a recommended BETDAQ bet.

WEST HAM V LEICESTER

8pm What a cracker we have in store for Monday Night Football in the Premier League! West Ham host Leicester at London Stadium after both sides got off to a winning start last weekend. This should be a very entertaining game, and we have a very open market on BETDAQ Betting Exchange too. Although I expect a close and competitive game, it’s to see the game not being very entertaining given the way both sides play.

Who would have thought West Ham would have so much attacking flair when David Moyes took over! If I recall correctly some fans protested when he took over, and when you think about it he took over to try keep them up! They were genuine Top Four challengers last season; although they fell away at the crunch moment, sixth is still an incredible achievement and they can look forward to European football this season – as can Leicester.

The Hammers went behind twice on the opening weekend but they came back to beat Newcastle 4-2 in the end, while Leicester grinded out a 1-0 win over Wolves. Although Leicester didn’t concede, they did give away an xG of 1.66 to Wolves which is a little concerning given the amount of chances West Ham create. I won’t be getting carried away with only one game but West Ham created an xG of 3.15 last weekend against Newcastle and given they had so many impressive xG performances last season – at the moment it looks like they’ve started where they left off.

I have to say, it’s set up to be a fantastic game. It’s not surprising we have such an open market. Both sides will have their supporters in the market, but West Ham look at the value option for me at 2.64. They put in a much better performance on the opening weekend, and I do believe Leicester have some issues at the back. Given the volume of chances West Ham create, that could be a major issue for Leicester. It’s hard not to see plenty of goal chances too, and over 2.5 goals is very appealing at 1.89 but West Ham offer marginally more value for me so they will be my best bet. I wouldn’t put anyone off overs either though.

The Striker Says:
Two points win West Ham to beat Leicester at 2.64 with BETDAQ BETTING EXCHANGE
