West Ham vs Nottingham Forest picks, predictions and how to watch

Over 2.5 goals: -105 (19/20)

Jarrod Bowen: Score or assist: +125 (5/4)

Elliot Anderson fouled 2+ times: -210 (1/2)

Combined odds: +361 (13/5)

West Ham host Nottingham Forest at the London Stadium in the English Premier League on Tuesday, January 6, with both sides in desperate need of a win. You can watch the action live on the USA Network at 3pm EST.

West Ham will return to East London to play in front of their home fans off the back of being on the end of Wolves’ first victory of the campaign.

The Irons are now winless in nine games and trail Sunday’s visitors by four points and one position in the Premier League table.

Manager Nuno Espírito Santo will look to defeat his former side when Forest make the journey to the Capital on Tuesday night.

Leeds’ recent form has seen them leapfrog manager Sean Dyche’s side, who, after four consecutive Premier League defeats, are hovering ominously above the relegation zone.

Forest sit 17th in the Premier League table, knowing that a win against West Ham would see them extend the gap between the two clubs to seven.

What are the best bets for West Ham vs Nottingham Forest?

Over 2.5 goals 

Whilst neither side have shown themselves to be prolific scorers of late, the head-to-head record suggests that this match will see at least three goals scored.

This has been the case in 11 of the last 13 meetings between the two sides.

Jarrod Bowen to score or assist 

The England winger is the only West Ham player performing well at the moment, and it is no surprise to see that he is their top goalscorer with six Premier League goals.

Elliot Anderson to be fouled 2+ times

The England midfielder ranks second in the Premier League for fouls won this season, drawing an average of 2.4 fouls per game.
