Betting on West Ham United’s game at Hull

After an encouraging 10th place finish in the Premier League last season, the Hammers' 3000/1 dreams of a title are almost certainly already over.

At the other end of the scale, the 9/1 quote for Sam Allardyce's squad to be relegated looks about right.

After a shaky start and a lack of goals, Big Sam's men will be looking at this weekend's fixture at Hull as a winnable game. Despite the bookmakers having Hull down as 5/4 favourites, most Irons fans will be optimistic of getting a result.

Looking at the in-play betting market, there is plenty to choose from this weekend. With Hull's strong defence but lack of goal scoring threat combined with West Ham's own troubles in front of goal this season, a 0-0 draw looks very tempting at 9/1.

However as football fans we all know games like this always surprise us and can turn into goal fests. With this in mind you can get 1/1 odds on there being over 2.5 goals in the game. Or perhaps after his goal scoring heroics in mid-week you might fancy a bet on Ricardo Vaz Te to bang in a hat-trick at 100/1?

For those who aren’t sure which market to bet on why not visit a mobile casino, many of which provide an alternative in the form of slots game, ‘Game On’.

Game On is a video slot with three reels and a football theme, centring on an all-animal World Cup. This makes it one of the sharpest and funniest football slots, but it is also one that really does give you a great shot at a cash pay-out.

With the World Cup reel icon translating to a win if you get three of them across a single pay line, while the football icon triggers the bonus skill shot game. When you also add in the typical elements of a slot machine, like the jackpot and ultra cheap gaming, you have numerous reasons to try playing Game On, rather than risking a Premier League title bet so early in the new season.
