Chelsea’s midweek win over Tottenham has thrown West Ham United a lifeline. The Hammers looked dead and buried after a 3-1 defeat at Newcastle United left Spurs needing a solitary point from their remaining matches to confirm safety. However, the battle for survival now goes down to the final day, and while three points for West Ham may still not be enough, there is hope. And Nuno Espirito Santo’s side will be pulling out all of the stops to keep their end of the bargain. They face a Leeds United side who have comfortably survived in their first season after promotion and have only pride to play for. I have placed a nice 92/25 bet builder ahead of Sunday's action.

Using data from Kickform, and taking into account the situation going into the final day of the season, I have found three great value bets to make a 92/25 bet builder with MyStake, one of the leading international betting sites.
Double Chance: West Ham or Draw
While Newcastle turned in an improved performance to beat West Ham last Sunday, there is no getting away from the fact that the Hammers were poor. They are in a dire situation, but I am backing them to be fired up after Spurs’ midweek defeat and go all out to get a result. If Tottenham get a point or better, then what happens in this game is irrelevant, but I am expecting a battling performance from West Ham. Espirito Santo has lifted West Ham’s performance level since his arrival at the club, and this, along with their desperation and the fact that Leeds are both safe and out of the European race, means that I don’t think the home side will lose.
BTTS: Yes
West Ham (six) and Leeds (eight) have only kept 14 clean sheets between them this season. The Kickform stats show that both teams have scored in 61% of West Ham’s home matches and in 67% of Leeds’ away fixtures. I’m going with the data here. West Ham have the attacking talent to score, but I have no confidence in them keeping a clean sheet. I am anticipating goals at either end on Sunday.
Jarrod Bowen Anytime Goalscorer
Jarrod Bowen has been crucial to West Ham in good times and bad throughout his time at the club. Bowen has eight goals in the league this season, and I feel it will be a case of commeth the hour commeth the man on Sunday. When it counts, Bowen generally stands up, and I back him to do so against Leeds. Whether it is enough to save West Ham, and this ends up being his swansong, is open to debate.
