For West Ham, e see opportunity to get something on board before Tottenham match, and e think game go be cagey. Yankuba Minteh fit score for Brighton against Newcastle at 11/2, as e don score twice in last three appearances against former club. Granit Xhaka to be fouled at least twice at 10/11 also get appeal, especially against Wolves midfielders Joao Gomes and Andre.

For Bournemouth vs Crystal Palace, e dey see draw at 3/1 as value bet, because Bournemouth don draw six of last eight games and Palace get 10 draws this season. Bruno Fernandes to register assist at 6/4 be another good pick, as e dey chase Thierry Henry and Kevin De Bruyne all-time record of 20 assists in season. E don get 19 assists already.
