Bournemouth – West Ham. Prediction and announcement for the match of the championship of England

On December 16, the match of the 16th round of the English Premier League will be held at Vitality, in which “Bournemouth” will meet “West Ham”. The match will start at 22:00 Kyiv time.

Bournemouth

The team is spending its third season after returning to the Premier League. And since the summer of last year, he has been playing under the leadership of Andoni Iraola. So far, there is no reason for the Cherries management to regret such a choice: with Basque, the club was 12th last season, and even after the sale of Solanke to Tottenham, it remains a very worthy team. Ironically, he met the winter, being higher in the table just ahead of Spurs, who were beaten in a head-to-head match, having also dealt with Arsenal and Manchester City before that. On the other hand, there were generally enough defeats, and the club remains among the middle peasants, even if there are even chances to compete for European cups. Even with Ipswich in the last round, it was not easy, however, they won there 2:1.

West Ham

The club showed some black ingratitude, dismissing Moyes in the summer for decent results. After all, it was David who brought the title, including the international one, to the Conference League in 2023. But last summer, they said goodbye to the old-school specialist, inviting Lopetegui to the vacated place, and buying newcomers under the Spaniard for a nine-figure sum. As a result, at the end of autumn, Yulen was almost completely disappointed, and it remained an intrigue as to which match, which new misfire would become fatal. After 1:3 with the struggler for survival, Leicester, literally a couple of votes were not enough at the management meeting. Well, 2:1 with Wolverhampton, a direct competitor, was a more than timely success – both for the specialist personally and for the ambitious project in general.

Statistics of personal meetings

The Hammers are unbeaten against the Cherries in their last 7 official matches and have won, including the last one – 1:0 in August in the League Cup.

Forecast

Bookmakers do not believe in the new success of the guests. All trumps, from form and stability to the field factor – in favor of Iraola. We bet that he will beat his compatriot on Monday (coefficient – 1.73).
