It is that time of the week again when we pit West Ham fans against BBC pundit Mark Lawrenson with predictions
Lawro has predicted a 2-0 away win. “West Ham came unstuck against Liverpool last weekend, when they did not play well, but the sign of a good side is when you can respond after a poor performance and the Hammers certainly did that in their win over Aston Villa.
I was impressed by the way David Moyes’ side were set up from front to back – they kept Jack Grealish quiet for starters, but they always got men forward quickly too. New loan signing Jesse Lingard made an instant impression with his two goals in that game, and he has clearly been training hard and looked really sharp despite hardly playing for Manchester United this season. There will be more to come from him, I’m sure.
Fulham did not really lay a finger on Leicester on Wednesday and their long wait for a first league win since the end of November goes on – I don’t see them ending it here, either.”
West Ham fan predictions:
West Ham Till I Die, blogger, David Hauzig also predicts a 2-0 win saying “ We are tight at the back plus effective going forward equals three points.”
ITK EXWHUEmployee says “ I am going for a 1-3 win to West Ham. I just feel if we can replicate the performance that we did against Villa we will have too much for Fulham to compete with!”
Stelios from the Irons United Youtube channel says “After the blip against Liverpool, normal business was resumed against Villa in midweek.
Lingard, and let’s not forget the much-maligned Fredericks, have added an extra dimension to the way we play. Despite having a small squad, competition for places is strong. With that in mind, it will be too much for Fulham to handle. 0-2 West Ham!”
Animator and Moore Than Just A Podcast presenter Canning Town Len says: “1-0 to West Ham. Expect a lot of defending from the Hammers, our attacking ability will pull through.”
Moore Than Just A Podcast presenter John Bucci says “1-3 to West Ham We will go one-nil down then turn them over”
His son and fellow Moore Than Just A Podcast presenter George Bucci adds “4-0 West Ham coz JLingz”
Claret and Hugh Associate Editor Sean Whetstone says “Another away win for the Hammers to pile on the misery for former Hammers Scott Parker who has been paring the bus of late. I will go for a 2-0 win as I think we will find a way through”
