After tipping winners on Friday and Saturday, SlipsTips takes a look at the Bet Builder market ahead of West Ham's Premier League meeting with Tottenham on Sunday.
West Ham vs Tottenham (Sunday, 12:00)
West Ham are having a season to remember and they will be looking to add to Tottenham's woes at the London Stadium on Sunday lunchtime.
The Hammers have exceeded expectations this season, with David Moyes' men firmly in the mix for an unexpected European berth.
Spurs, meanwhile, have lost four of their last five league matches and a talk of a Tottenham title challenge now seems a distant memory.
Having said that, Jose Mourinho's men managed to get a much-needed win against Wolfsberger in the Europa League on Thursday and the self proclaimed “Special One” will be hoping that success will act as a springboard to reignite his side's season.
Whether or not Tottenham triumph in this London derby remains to be seen and I'm going to swerve the match result market here and instead head to Bet 365‘s Bet Builder.
If we combine over zero Tottenham goals and each team to receive over zero cards we will be presented with an eye-catching even-money (1/1) play.
Indeed, West Ham are flying high in the Premier League this season, however, the Hammers have found points hard to come by when going toe-to-toe with the “traditional top-six” this term.
What's more, basement boys Sheffield United squandered several gilt-edged chances at the London Stadium on Monday night and a far superior Spurs side won't be so wasteful in front of goal.
With that in mind, I'm more than happy to back Tottenham to breach West Ham's backline on Sunday and given that this is a London derby I'll also back each team to receive at least one card.
True, both of these sides are not particularly prolific for cards this season, but sparks do tend to fly in this fixture and referee Craig Pawson's 3.57 card per game average is decent by Premier League standards.
It's also worth noting that the above-mentioned combination has clicked in each of the last three meetings and I'm more than happy to support the same formula at the London Stadium on Sunday.
