How To Make Money Betting On West Ham
West Ham endured a tumultous start to their 2016-17 campaign, losing the services of their marquis player, Dimitri Payet. It wasn't just the fact that West Ham lost Payet, but how he departed. It was an acrimonious departure, the enigmatic player refusing to play for the east Londoners. But the team and club rallied and played well in Payet's absence. Bilic can take a lot of credit for his team's recovery.
It wasn't, overall, the type of season West Ham were looking for. Plagued by inconsistency, the Hammers never really put together a string of great results. The major issue was how they played at their new home stadium. The pitch, circled by an Olympic size running track, is quite a distance from the stands, making it difficult to build the kind of atmosphere West Ham have historically thrived on.
Before backing West Ham at home, find out whether they've finally adapted to playing at the Olympic Stadium. If they perform poorly from the start of the season, wager accordingly. West Ham had the fifth worst home record in 2016-17, winning only seven of 19 matches. Bilic came under a lot of media pressure, some calling for his job. But Bilic is an extremely good manager and it would be a mistake for West Ham to brandish him as a scapegoat.
The Hammers were much better on their travels, laying claim to the ninth best record in the league. Gaining 20 from a possible 57 points is a decent return from a team who struggled with conistency. If they can keep that kind of away form while improving at home, West Ham could be viable future picks to obtain a spot in the Europa League.
