Verdict
Based on the head-to-head statistics and the recent form of both teams, this match appears to be quite competitive. West Ham United has shown resilience in their last match with a convincing win against Leicester, while Bournemouth's draw against a top team like Tottenham indicates their potential to steal points.
Given their home advantage and slightly better recent performance, a safe bet would be on West Ham United to win. However, considering Bournemouth's ability to score, betting on "both teams to score" (BTTS) could also be a smart choice.
