PICK OF THE DAY
West Ham - Brighton
Tip : 1
Odd : 1.90
FT : 0:3 Lost
West Ham have endured a tough start to the season and despite so much optimism surrounding the club at the start of the season, they would be lucky to get into the top half of the table. They have improved though in recent weeks and have won three of the last six an all competition drawing two and losing just one. They conceded a late goal in their last game away at Burnley to draw 1-1 with striker Andy Carroll getting sent off in that game. They will do without the services of Sakho, Collins and Carroll with Chicharito set to be examined before the game but he should be fit enough to start here. Home form has been crucial for West Ham as six of their total haul of eight points have come in front of their fans and they would be eager to get a victory here which could lift them up to 10th place going into the weekend games. They should line up in a 4-2-2-2 formation with Chicharito and Antonia spearing the forward line supported by Arnautovic and Lanzini.
Brighton have two wins, two draws and four defeats from their opening eight games and have won just one point from a possible twelve in their four away games so far. Their league survival will rest solely on their home form as they do not look like a good away side thus far and they have two wins, two draws and two defeats from their last six games. They need to get better in front of goal as they only have just a solitary strike to their name when playing away from home. They have drawn blanks at Arsenal, Watford and Leicester. They are without Sidwell, Tomer Hemed and Shane Duffy remains doubtful.
This is a game between two struggling side but considering how well West Ham are playing at home and Brighton dismal away performances, the home side just about takes the edge to win this one in a low scoring affair.
