There are two matches in the Premier League on Sunday which directly affect the race for Europe as well as the relegation battle - here’s our selection of the best bets.
2pm, Sky Sports Main Event
The Hammers will start the game in eighth at worst, with Wolves the only team able to leapfrog them when they play Aston Villa on Saturday.
Although their form has been erratic, they have not been beaten in five home games in all competitions since they went down to Leeds on January 16 and they are looking to secure three straight home wins in the top flight for the first time in more than a year.
Manager David Moyes spent 11 years at Goodison Park between 2002-2013 and faces his former side who are in real danger of dropping down to the Championship.
West Ham are 54% for the win with the Hammers at 2.84 to win to nil. Michail Antonio has not scored in five games for the hosts, and he is 2.28 to break his duck.
Frank Lampard returns to the club where he started his career with his side hovering precariously above the drop zone. The Toffees have the worst away record in the top flight with one win among a six-point haul, and they last avoided defeat on the road in the league at Chelsea on December 16.
Their scoring record is woeful with one goal in six league games although they did win their last Premier League outing against Newcastle.
They are at 4.6 to win with a draw at 3.75 while Alex Iwobi is 5.5 to score anytime, and Dominic Calvert-Lewin at 3.15.
Recommended bet: West Ham win to nil @ 2.84
Spurs boss Antonio Conte has seen his side win three of their last four Premier League games to move into top four contention
4:30pm, Sky Sports Main Event
Tottenham are in the hunt for a top-four place with two straight wins, and three in four games, and Antonio Conte’s side are 1.53 for the win.
Harry Kane has been involved in seven goals against the Magpies in his last four games with five goals and seven assists, and he is 1.82 to score anytime.
Spurs have only been involved in one goalless draw this season in all competitions, and the north London side to win with both teams scoring is at 3.2.
Newcastle are all but safe following a run that saw them take 19 points from a possible 21. However, they have lost their last two games by a single-goal margin, against Chelsea and Everton, and they are at 7 to come away with all three points with a draw at 4.4.
Joe Willock’s two league goals this season have come in the last five games and he is at 7 to be on target at any time, with Chris Wood 4 to claim his second goal for the Magpies.
Recommended bet: Tottenham win and both teams to score @ 3.2
West Ham to nil @ 2.84
Tottenham/BTTS @ 3.2
Kane anytime @ 1.82
