Before you lock in your West Ham vs. Bournemouth picks or Premier League predictions, you need to see what proven soccer expert Brandt Sutton has to say.
Sutton, a former collegiate soccer player, has been SportsLine's top soccer editor for more than five years. He has followed soccer closely for much longer and factors in managerial tactics, projected lineups and past performances to make the most-informed decisions possible, keeping his finger on the pulse of the game all over the globe.

Sutton finished 2022 as SportsLine's top soccer expert with a 165-130-2 mark, returning nearly $2,200 for $100 players. He also excelled in Serie A with a 63-39-1 mark, returning nearly $1,600.
The expert knows that Bournemouth has been in exceptional form, with wins in each of their last three matches. The Cherries beat Ipswich Town away last week, scored an impressive home win over Tottenham the week prior and also won 4-2 at Wolverhampton to start the winning streak. Now they've comfortably moved into the top half of the table and are in serious contention to qualify for a European competition next season. As good as Bournemouth has been this season, the analytics paint an even clearer picture that the Cherries are to be taken seriously. Their expected goal difference is +12.5 while their actual goal difference is +3.
Sutton also knows that West Ham is coming off a crucial win over Wolverhampton last week to put some needed distance between themselves and the relegation zone. Thomas Soucek opened the scoring with a 54th-minute goal and quickly recovered from yielding a 69th-minute equalizer when Jarrod Bowen scored in the 72nd minute. The goal ended a five-match goalless streak for Bowen, who scored 16 goals during West Ham's top-half finish last season but has only managed four so far this season.
Now, Sutton has taken a close look at the Premier League match from all sides. He is leaning Under on the goal total and also revealed his best bet and a full breakdown of this match. You ABSOLUTELY need to see his picks and analysis before making any selections of your own.Â
