Bristol City vs West Ham: Top free betting tips
Our Bristol City vs West Ham predictions are below. We predict that there will be something of an upset as we can see Bristol City beating Premier League side West Ham United.
Bristol City performed excellently in the original match played a couple of weeks ago which finished in a 1-1 draw after a second-half equaliser from Bristol City's Tommy Conway. Since that match, Bristol City have lost 2-0 to Preston but we put that down to being distracted by a potential FA Cup run with Nottingham Forest or Blackpool facing the winner of this match. West Ham will be without Mohammed Kudus (AFCON) and Nayef Aguerd (AFCON) until February.
Correct outcome prediction: Bristol City to Win
This result would be one of many FA Cup upsets to happen this year but we can just see Bristol City earning their place in the next round of the FA Cup. Bristol City's home form has been a bit all over the place this season, winning six, drawing two and losing five of their thirteen home matches but we can see this match ending with a win for the Championship side.
Both teams to score prediction: Yes
Bristol City have managed to keep just two clean sheets from their previous twelve matches, in that time the Robins have also scored in all but four of those twelve matches, a fairly good return. West Ham have managed to keep a clean sheet in all of their previous four Premier League matches, but have recently conceded five to Liverpool and five to Fulham.
Correct score prediction: 2-1 to Bristol City
Bristol City will win this match, although West Ham will dominate everything from possession to chances created and shots on goal. We can see Bristol City just about holding out and keeping West Ham at bay for a lot of this tie. Bristol City are a very good counter-attacking team with quick players in attack, something which they will look to utilise against West Ham.
How far will West Ham’s fans travel to Bristol?
The driving distance between West Ham's London Stadium and Bristol is 161 miles. With temperatures set to be below freezing this week, we would advise anyone travelling to this match to wrap up warm.
