See our West Ham vs Nottm Forest betting tips for the only Premier League game on Tuesday night – which is a huge clash in store, with both sides struggling this season and battling for survival.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

As the old saying goes – it’s the classic ‘Three-Pointer’<\/em> that also has added sub-slots with both mangers – Sean Dyche and Nuno Espirito Santo – being under big pressure in the Premier League sack race betting<\/a> market.<\/p>\n

So, in a tricky game to call – which team will come out with the bragging rights and give their manager a bit of breathing space?<\/p>\n

West Ham vs Nottingham Forest – Does Nuno Have One Game To Save His Job?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Hammers are having a bad season – FACT.<\/p>\n

And this was compounded with added humiliation of losing to Wolves in their last game – a side who hadn’t won in the league all season.<\/p>\n

As a result, West Ham are 18th in the table with just 14 points and the bookies are making them as short as 1\/3 in the Premier League relegation odds<\/a> market.<\/p>\n

All this has, of course, also piled a stack of pressure on their boss Nuno Espirito Santo.<\/p>\n

With the next West Ham manager odds<\/a> market getting plenty of interest in recent weeks – that sees former head coach Slaven Bilic one of the fancies to take over.<\/p>\n

There is also an added sub-plot to Tuesday’s game as Nuno will also be returning to the club he used to manage – knowing a defeat to his former employers would probably see him get another p45.<\/p>\n

In short, there’s a lot to take in and a lot at stake.<\/p>\n

Especially as Forest are not doing much better in the league too – with 18 points (17th), with no win in four.<\/p>\n

Which has also plonked pressure on Sean Dyche in the next Premier League sack race odds<\/a> market.<\/p>\n

So, in a game that tensions could boil over – what are the best West Ham vs Nottm Forest betting tips to take into Tuesday’s big relegation battle?<\/p>\n

    West Ham Haven’t Won In Nine\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n

    Having lost to fellow strugglers Wolves in their last game, West Ham are now on a run of NINE games without a win.<\/p>\n

    With their last victory coming in a 3-2 home win over Burnley in early November – yet another side at the foot of the table.<\/p>\n

    During this run of nine games, the Hammers have lost five and drawn four.<\/p>\n

    Plus have also leaked 18 goals during this period.<\/p>\n

    While at home in the league this season, West Ham have won just two (lost seven and drawn one).<\/p>\n

    Then, when looking at the current form of Nottm Forest, it’s not as bad as West Ham – but it’s getting there.<\/p>\n

    Forest haven’t won in four no, so will be looking to stop the rot before it gets any worse and, of course, ease the pressure on boss Sean Dyche.<\/p>\n

    They’ve lost their last four to Villa, Everton, City and Fulham – with their last win against Spurs in the middle of December.<\/p>\n

    But Forest have only two away league wins to their name this season, with two draws and losing six.<\/p>\n

    On a plus for Forest though – from their last 14 games, they’ve lost six (four recently).<\/p>\n

    Therefore, their longer form gives them more hope of a return to better than West Ham.<\/p>\n

    West Ham and Nottm Forest Don’t Draw Many Games When Playing Each Other<\/h2>\n

    So, in a tough game to call – with both sides out-of-form and playing as bad as each other – the wise move could be to side away from the match odds.<\/p>\n

    Despite being the home side West Ham are the 11\/5 second favourites, with Forest 11\/8 and the draw 9\/4 – which is sure to be popular.<\/p>\n

    However, – did you know?<\/p>\n

    These sides haven’t drawn a match in their last 14 H2H’s.<\/p>\n

    With their last stalemate coming in October 2003 in an Old Division One clash at Upton Park.<\/p>\n

    Meaning, if recent history is backed-up – we should get a result one way, or another here.<\/p>\n

    West Ham vs Nottm Forest Betting Tips: H2H’s Suggest Goals\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n

    Therefore, in a game that really could go either way – the way we are going to play our West Ham vs Nottm Forest betting tips is in the goals markets.<\/p>\n

    Recent H2H’s tell us there are generally goals when these two play.<\/p>\n

    The Hammers beat Forest 3-0 at the City Ground earlier this season in the league.<\/p>\n

    While FIVE of the last six meetings have also seen OVER 2.5 GOALS scored.<\/p>\n

    Which works out at an 83% return.<\/p>\n

    This is also backed up with ALL of the last five league H2H’s played at West Ham having 3+ goals.<\/p>\n

    So, with this in mind, the 10\/11 on Tuesday’s West Ham vs Nottm Forest game having OVER 2.5 GOALS looks fair value.<\/p>\n

    BEST BET: OVER 2.5 GOALS @ 10\/11\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n
