West Ham have the chance to move into the Premier League’s top four when they welcome Norwich City to the London Stadium on Wednesday.

The Hammers are a point adrift of fourth-placed Arsenal coming into this clash, which has been rearranged from before Christmas due to Covid-19.

West Ham vs Norwich latest odds

Having won three and lost none of their last five games against this opposition, West Ham are 1/4 (1.25) favourites with bet365 to steal a march in the race for the Champions League with a victory.

Dean Smith’s Norwich have lost each of their last five matches in the league and are 11/1 (12.0) outsiders to end that run by coming out on top in London, or priced at 5/1 (6.0) to earn a creditable draw.

West Ham vs Norwich first goalscorer

Michail Antonio scored all four goals in a 4-0 win the last time these sides met and is the 7/2 (4.50) favourite to break the deadlock, with Manuel Lanzini on offer at 9/1 (10.0) after three goals in his last two games.

Teemu Pukki is the visitors' 12/1 (13.0) favourite to strike first after scoring five of his team’s eight league goals this season, while Adam Idah can be backed at 16/1 (17.0) to get off the mark for the campaign.

West Ham vs Norwich preview

After struggling for wins during a difficult December period, David Moyes’ team are playing with confidence once again following a run of three consecutive victories.

Having scored nine goals in those three matches, they should prove too hot to handle for a Canaries backline that has conceded 14 times without reply over the course of their five-match league losing streak.

What’s more, West Ham have fond memories of taking on this opposition, doing the double over them in 2019-20 by a combined scoreline of 6-0.

West Ham vs Norwich predictions

Considering Norwich have both the worst attacking and defensive record in the league - particularly on the road - odds of 15/8 (2.88) are well worth backing on them losing by at least three goals for a third successive league game.
