West Ham United find themselves in a challenging position ahead of their Europa League last-16 second-leg encounter with Freiburg at the London Stadium on Thursday night. The team, under the guidance of David Moyes, experienced a setback with a 1-0 loss during the first leg in Germany, a match that proved profitable for my predictions in the scenic Black Forest region.
The Irons are the favourites ahead of the tie at 4/6 with CopyBet while their Bundesliga counterparts are 7/2 and a draw is 14/5.
To keep their European ambitions alive, the Hammers are tasked with reversing a one-goal disadvantage. Their preparation for this crucial match was less than stellar, having had to mount a comeback from a two-goal deficit to salvage a draw against Premier League strugglers Burnley last Sunday.
On the other side, Freiburg climbed to the eighth spot in the Bundesliga standings over the weekend, securing a 2-1 victory on their visit to Bochum. Despite having faced defeat at the London Stadium earlier in the Europa League season, Christian Streich’s squad has an opportunity to progress to the quarter-finals if they can steer clear of a loss in this upcoming match.
The stage is set for an intense showdown as West Ham United look to overturn their fortunes and continue their pursuit of European success. With both teams having shown resilience and determination in their recent outings, Thursday's clash promises to be a compelling spectacle filled with strategic plays and moments of brilliance.
Jarrod Bowen to score anytime - 7/5
West Ham to win to nil - 7/4
