West Ham United welcome the visitors Cardiff City in the English Premiere League – Round 15. The match will be held on Tuesday, December 4th at the Olympic Stadium (London).
Even considering that West Ham United had a smashout away win over Newcastle, we do not find it wise to predict their win on Tuesday with the margin below 2 – the hosts get three points only in a fourth of their matches. Despite their latest additions, the team are still inconsistent. They did start to win, they started to score indeed, but their defense is still in the mess, same as before. The match against Manchester demonstrated this clearly. Ahead of their encounter with the Bluebirds, The Hammers did not allow in the clash with Chelsea only. We won’t be surprised if West Ham drop points on their surf or lose to the opponent yet.

Cardiff City could take only one point in their outings. Moreover, they made only two goals. However, we should mind their opponents – Tottenham, Chelsea, Liverpool, and Everton. Such encounters are really challenging for a newcomer, there is not too much to hope for. In the last rounds though, the situation is getting a bit better. Cardiff City got two wins over Wolverhampton and Brighton; they are adjusting to the championship and are quite ready to deliver a battle to the opponent struggling much in the defense.
There is little point in discussing the hosts’ squad. They have enough injuries. West Ham have a negative goal difference at home, and even if they are called favorite, this is due to the home pitch factor. We won’t predict the outcome of the match, but the guests will surely have a chance to score at least once. The win over Newcastle may also do a disservice to West Ham. There was something similar after the win over Manchester United.
Prediction for the match: Cardiff City to score over 0.5 goals.
