[Football] West Ham - Watford (nailed on draw?)
- Thread starter moggy
- Start date
Put a tenner on it at 2-1.
But the winner will be as good as safe.

I think both teams will be safety first in the knowledge that a draw would mean Bournemouth and Villa would (bar a big swing in goal difference) need to win both of their remaining games to overhaul them.

As villa play West Ham last game, if they draw tomorrow, should Villa get anything at Arsenal, West ham lose last game and they are down.
Sorry just seen GD....yeah probably right.

The loser will not be safe is a better way of putting it.
If it's level after 75 minutes on Friday,i wouldn't expect the score to change.
But both teams will want a win as they both have tough games to follow.

Watford to go for it and win. They HAVE to with City and Arsenal to play.

No chance of playing out for a draw , a win will seal one of the teams survival . I’d prefer a Watford win, I really want a winner takes all game between villa West Ham on the last day of the season

Same sentiments, Villa and West Ham both dropping was my dream scenario .... two huge spenders in recent seasons with entitled fans. One of would still be funny.
So a Watford win for me would keep things on track.

Watford are only 4 goals better GD than Bournemouth. That's almost certain to be overturned in Bournemouth's favour if Watford draw with West Ham and then finish level on points with Bournemouth.
Win for Watford please.
I did one of those predictor things tonight - was a bit kind to us and had us in 14th. on GD ahead of Newcastle. Came to a wonderful scenario for the last day, Villa v. Wet Sham (loser goes down, winner likely to stay up) - Villa win to put themselves ahead of Wet Sham, so Wet Sham relegated .......................... but unfortunately (!) Plucky's 1-1 draw at Everton keeps them ahead of Villa on GD ............................ pure bliss!

That's the worst case for me.
Plucky always nick points/thrash us.
Don't think we've lost to West Ham in the Prem yet.
I want Villa and Plucky to go down.
Second choice is Watford (mainly Pearson tbh) and Plucky.
Any permutation where Plucky stay up. Can **** right off!

For me since lockdown it's always felt like Bmuff Villa and Norwich for the drop. That said, it would be brilliant to have West Ham vs Villa in a winner take all match on the last day of the season.
That Walcott goal was massive for Watford. I hope they do the business tomorrow.

Not bothered about Plucky. They can go down next season. Would like to see the porno brothers and the Stadium squatters crash and burn. If Villa can do that to them on the last day, and still go down themselves - I would be delighted (and I don't care whether you would be or not!)
BTTS at 1.80 on Bet365 is a steal I think.
I play for money rather than for fun though so I rarely leave the 1.70-2.20 range but even then I think you could get more value out of the X.
X + BTTS would give you 4.0 (on Bet365, maybe small difference on Betfair).
X + BTTS + above 2 cards = 6.0 on Bet365.
Pretty good value as the only real worry is the X but if you get it you'll likely enable the others as I dont think 0-0 will happen. And 2+ cards seems very likely as well considering the importance.
Personally dont dare to go for a result bet. Think 1.8 on BTTS is a good value bet, putting 4/5 units on it. And a fun little 1/5 unit bet on BTTS + 4 cards or more + 8 corners or more at 7.56. Certainly not the worst "fun bet" I've made even though 4+ cards are really rare in PL.
