West Ham host Nottingham in the English Premier League on Tuesday night in a game that shapes up as a relegation 6 pointer, between two teams in and close to the relegation zone. We preview the game and offer up some betting options for consideration.

West Ham currently sit 18th on the table, 4 points behind Nottingham who currently occupy the last position of safety.
They have been on a horror run going 9 games without a victory and the lowest point came last time out when they were away to bottom of the table, Wolves, who had yet to win a game. West Ham started slight favourites for the match, but were 3-0 down by half-time and that is the way the scored stayed. West Ham have won twice this season in front of their own fans, and have only taken 1 point from the last 12 points available at home.
Nottingham have won 2 of their 10 away matches, but have lost their last 3 in succession and have only managed to score 7 goals in 10 matches on the road. They put a decent run together at the end of 2025, winning 4 of 6 matches, but have now lost 4 in a row, but their most recent result was a 3-1 away loss at Aston Villa.
Head-to-Head
These sides met earlier in the season with West Ham winning 3-0 at Nottingham. Last season it was Nottingham who did the double winning this fixture 2-1 and winning 3-0 at home.

West Ham 3.15
Draw 3.40
Nottingham Forest 2.30
Verdict
It is a sign of just how badly West Ham are playing that they are underdogs at home to Nottingham, but I think the bookies have got this right as Nottingham can take a huge step to safety with a 3 pointer here.
BET: Nottingham Forest win at 2.30.
There are plenty of other markets on offer, with the goals market always popular. The over 2.5 goals is trading at 1.91, the under 2.5 at 1.87.
This is one of those games that could be really scrappy and low scoring, but at the same time it wouldn’t surprise me if the teams throw caution to the wind and we get a high scoring, entertaining game. Both teams to find the back of the net is priced at 1.73 and if you are a correct score punter how about a 15.00 play that we have a 2-2 draw.
