Bookmaker Ratings prediction one – Away win – 1.80
Bookmaker Ratings prediction two – West Ham Goals handicap (-0.5) – 1.78
Match Predict – Away win
Despite West Ham’s recent poor form, they need to bounce back after UEFA Europa League elimination. The Hammers take on an opponent who have lost 9 of their last 11 league matches, and that should see them return to winning ways.
West Ham Goals handicap (-0.5)
According to the bookies, the Hammers are the favorites to win. If David Moye’s side win this game, they will win a least with a two goals margin. Moreover, West Ham have scored at least 2 goals in their last 5 matches against Norwich in all competitions.
Therefore the possibility for the guest’s to cover the -0.5 handicap are too high.
Preliminary review and match prediction for Norwich City vs West Ham
Norwich have been relegated from the Premier League after their 2-0 defeat at Aston Villa in their last league fixture. This is a record sixth relegation from the Premier League.
Having the worst attack and defense in the league, the Canaries were unable to avoid the relegation zone. Already relegated, Norwich can at least play without pressure here.
? DS: “The approach is still to try to win games. We don’t want to finish bottom and it’s still possible to finish above Watford.

On the other hand, West Ham’s European dream faded after they were knocked out by Eintracht Frankfurt in the UEFA Europa League semi-finals.
Full-back Aaron Cresswell was sent off in the first half to leave the Hammers facing an uphill battle. However, the Hammers didn’t do enough to win this Europa League semi-final.
West Ham will now seek to end a league four-match winless run when they make the trip to Carrow Road this weekend.
