In-form West Ham United welcome Hull City to London on Saturday.
Michael Owen has told Bet Victor that he expects West Ham United to add to Hull City’s misery and continue their resurgence at the London Stadium on Saturday.
West Ham edged out Burnley 1-0 in London on Wednesday night for a much-needed victory which propelled them 15th in the Premier League table.
It came a matter of days after Slaven Bilic’s side drew 2-2 at Liverpool and the Irons seem to be slowly but surely getting better, after losing 5-1 to Arsenal 10 days ago in a defeat which plunged the Croat’s job into doubt.
And they should, in theory, continue to build on their recent run of form by beating a Hull side who have lost their last six league games away from home.
Andy Carroll made his first start since August in Wednesday’s win, and Michael Owen says he’s a fan of the towering striker.
“Hull are on a run of six successive away defeats and I can’t see them getting anything at the London Stadium, despite the fact that the Hammers were far from impressive against Burnley earlier in the week,” he told Bet Victor.
“Andy Carroll played 83 minutes against the Clarets and manager Slaven Bilic was fulsome in his praise for the striker after the game; I, too, am a big fan.”
If West Ham can get Carroll into some form then it’ll go a long way to helping them move further away from the danger zone in the Premier League.
