How do the experts see Wigan Athletic’s game against West Ham United, let’s have a look at how the pundits and bookies see this game going at the weekend….
Mark Lawrenson has gone for a 1-0 home win at the Upton Park on Saturday. The BBC pundit is currently lying 6th in the Cockney Latic Prediction League and that shows that he knows his stuff.
He said about his prediction; This is a game West Ham cannot lose. They’ve just lost their assistant manager, Avram Grant is under real pressure and he will have circled this game as a must-win fixture.
I just don’t know about this Wigan team, they are so inconsistent. So for this reason, it’s a home win for me.
Of the Prediction League users (sponsored by Workit Recruitment) 26% are going for 1-2 win to Latics, 16/1 on Betfair. It is no doubt a massive game for both teams as they look to get a win and some much needed points under their belts.
Latics will be without key players whilst the Hammers will be welcoming back theirs, but the pressure could tell as the unforgiving Boleyn Ground will soon get on the home team’s back if things don’t go well
Betfair, the fastest growing betting site in the UK, they have it going the way of a 1-1 Draw with odds of 6/1, 2-0 to the Latics is at 25/1 and 3-1 to Latics an 50/1 punt.
We are favourites to lose game at Evns, but if you think we’ll win we have odds of 3/1. So if betting is something you do, maybe a try of Betfair is something to consider.
Registration is easy, the odds are usually better than anywhere else (if there not you can ask for better) and to round it off, if your first bet loses they will refund it for you up to the value of £25. For instance, if you have £25 on Latics to beat Hammers at 3/1 you will be paid £100, if Latics don’t win – you get your £25 back.
