Hammers host Leicester, QPR entertain Baggies, Spurs face Burnley

A trio of London teams are in action at 3pm this Saturday, so Coral look at the latest assignments for West Ham United, QPR and Spurs

West Ham v Leicester City
Leicester (odds-on 4/7 with Coral to be relegated) have not beaten the Hammers since 2000, and have lost two of the last three meetings between the sides in all competitions.

The last time these teams met was in the 2011/12 Championship season, when West Ham overturned a one-goal deficit to emerge with a 2-1 victory over their East Midlands rivals. Winston Reid and Jack Collison sealed the comeback for the London outfit that day.

Sam Allardyce’s high-flying Hammers (14/1 for a top four finish) have been in exceptional form this campaign, rocketing up to fourth place in the Premier League table, only three points adrift of Manchester United in third.

Nigel Pearson’s faltering Foxes have struggled on their return to the top flight, they currently sit rock-bottom of the table as the Christmas period draws near.

Lacklustre Leicester have failed to win a domestic league game since their stunning 5-3 upset over Louis van Gaal’s Red Devils in September, with Pearson’s poor side losing their last four league games, including two defeats at the King Power Stadium.

The Hammers have double the points they had at the same stage of last season, and they will host a Foxes team who have conceded 19 league goals since their last win against United. Andy Carroll bagged a brace in his last home outing, and is 5/1 to score two or more again here.

QPR v West Bromwich Albion
Harry Redknapp’s stuttering side will welcome fellow relegation favourites West Brom to Loftus Road in their last fixture before Christmas.

QPR have the unwanted record of having the worst defence in the Premier League, having conceding 30 goals in 16 games this term, while West Brom have the shyest attack away from home, with just three goals, also level with their London opponents.
