KP Stadium, tonight, 7.45 (live Sky Sports 1)
THERE have been some strange results in the Championship recently but I can see it going to form tonight.
West Ham will surely get a big lift from Southampton's defeat at Middlesbrough on Saturday which means the second promotion spot is up for grabs.
The Hammers must win at Leicester then hope Saints don't beat Coventry at the weekend so it's a tall order.
Leicester have nothing to play for and having racked up 12 away wins already this season I'm on a lucky 13th for Sam Allardyce's men.
They are a biggest 15-8 with Skybet while Leicester are 17-10 at William Hill and the draw
5-2 with Ladbrokes.
The Hammers have netted 18 goals in six games and it was 3-2 when the sides met earlier in the season. I fancy both to score at 4-6 with Ladbrokes and over 2.5 goals at 4-5 with Ladbrokes.
There are suggestions Leicester could play some youngsters in their final home game of the season but with the promotion issue still alive that would be unfair to Southampton so they will probably be close to full strength.
Picking a first scorer isn't easy as the Hammers have so many attacking options. Ricardo Vaz Te, who has netted in five of his last six games, is 6-1 favourite at Coral but I'd go 2-1 on him with Coral to score at any time.
The man most likely for Leicester is Jermain Beckford who is 12-5 with Stan James to score.

Paul I’m with you on Vaz Te to score at anytime. 10 goals in 12 games. Available at a very tasty price of 2/1. Generally available at 6/4 and 11/8 elsewhere and as short as 10/11 with hills.
Gonnae stick £100 on him.
Chris, good luck with that, you’re due some. I’m away golfing for the day and watching the Bankies at night so will check in time to time.
He also hits the penalties and recently scored a hat trick. I’d imagine his price will be cut shortly.
Yeah cheers Paul. Think I’ll stick on first or last also for £10. If he scores first or last it’s a £250 profit or if he scores anywhere in between it’s £180 profit.
I think Hooper will be away from Celtic in the summer. He’s just not banging in the goals lately.
Just to let everyone know that Coral refunded all losing bets on first goalscorer, last goalscorer, correct scores and scorecast on the Celtic game yesterday with their Easy Three Promotion. Team wins by a 3 goal margin.
I am going for Vaz Te first scorer with Betfred @ 5/1 but I think he may score 2 or more so if he does score 2 or 3 betfred will double the first scorer odds and treble the first scorer odds if he scores the hat-trick. Any1 else thinks this is worth a shout/?
Am going for
West ham utd win
Malaga win
Bastia (-1) win
Treble! Good luck lads!
David why don’t you cover yourself and put him on anytime. You could put on enough just to cover your first goalscorer stake incase he doesn’t get first goal.
a good bit of thinking there, will probably just do that. maybe a wee 5er jus at least get my money back. Thanks Chris
Do coral give money back if the 1st goal scorer bet is done in play?
Matthew, as David says I’m pretty certain that offer won’t be for in-running bets.
a Doubt it very much matthew, normally these bets have to be put on before the game has kicked off.
David the betfred site has been down since early hours this morning! I am a fan of the double delight hatrick heaven but do you know if this is avalible in store on tonights game? I could place the bet at totesport online but to be honest I cant be bothered opening an account.
Chris thats how i plan to play tonight.
Im going for
.Vaz te first goal betfred 5/1 double delight hatrick heaven.
.Vaz te last goal coral 6/1.
.Vaz te anytime 2/1 still at corals. Surprised that price has lasted. Chris if its 2/1 corals online do you think it will be 2/1 instore?

Playin lef mid. Not got the service anytime hes managed to make it into box.
Wanted to speak to u Mr F. I picked QPR @ 3/1 for my super single and 0-0 in villa v sunderland @ 8/1 for my bonkers bet. The problem is im an idiot/knob coz i didnt bet on either of them. So i was wondering if u could help me out. I worked out if i done two fiver singles and a double i wuda won 245 quid. Seen as im not greedy i was thinking a wee 100 quid bet for any bet site would be spiffing. Thanx in advance ;)
Joe Knotts, you’ve got me in Knotts but don’t think the winners have been picked yet so you could land lucky.
Has vaz te been playing upfront in recent weeks? And been pushed ourlt wide 2nite because of coles return?
Cole wasn’t meant to be playing tonight through injury so has probably been pushed deeper.
Haha im sensing thats a nae on the ton then!!
Joe, you’re no’ daft. But next time place the bets.
I still haven’t got my free bet or even an email for being picked out for a super single win over a week ago.
Badham it took me like 3weeks to get it. Keep posting ur email on here till admin see it. Glad to see my westham race to 5 corners come in. Fingers crossed now! What’s everyone going for tomorrow…??
Matty, tips will be going up soon as well as weekend bonkers bet and super single reviews.
Same message as boys above. won super single 4weeks ago now . still no email or free bet ?????
Guys, admin will chase up free bets anyone hasn’t received.
