here are the tips from Nigel at bet365 for this game
"HAMMERS VALUE AT 9/2 TO CAUSE SHOCK
Liverpool v West Ham - Saturday May 13th, 3.00pm ko, live on BBC1 / Sky
Sports 2
Is the final piece of domestic silverware looks destined for Merseyside?
Liverpool are red-hot outright favourites at 2/7 here at bet365 to lift the
trophy (West Ham 5/2 outright), and those odds are not surprising
considering that the Reds are on fire right now, having 11 straight wins in
all competitions (their best run for 17 years!). Not forgetting that they
knocked out Chelsea and Man United on their route to Cardiff, and did the
double over West Ham in the league.
The evidence for backing Liverpool is compelling and I wouldn?t put anyone
off from taking bet365?s 8/13 for them to win in 90 minutes. But if you?re
looking for bigger odds, then why not take a crack at their Correct Score
market, where a bet on 2-0 and 2-1, at 11/2 and 7/1 respectively, could
reap dividends. The bet365 First Goalscorer market is also a good source of
value, as they?ll give you your money back if your selected player scores
the last goal in the game instead. Unsurprisingly, Liverpool players
dominate this market but, as with most Liverpool games, it could pay to
look beyond the strikers, and Steven Gerrard looks a decent punt at 11/2
and even better value at 6/4 to score at anytime.
However, while Liverpool are the most likely winners, whether they?re
entitled to win like 8/13 shots is another matter, and West Ham (9/2) must
have a better chance than their current odds suggest. The Hammers are on a
good run of their own having won six of their last 11 matches in all
competitions and arrive here on the back of confidence boosting 2-1 win
over Spurs last weekend. So, with a shock due (it?s been 11 years since a
clear underdog won!), the value call has to be West Ham to win in 90
minutes at a tasty bet365 price of 9/2.
Much bigger odds on West Ham can be found in bet365?s Double Result market,
where the Hammers can be backed at 11/1 to be drawing at half time and
winning after 90 minutes, compared to 3/1 for Draw / Liverpool. As with all
Cup finals, both sides will be playing with a degree of caution leading up
to the interval, so (whichever side you fancy) it makes sense to include
the half time draw in all such bets. For those of you who fancy the draw in
90 minutes, then bet365?s quote of 13/5 is standout!
The game should be a cracker, and even better odds might be available once
the match kicks off via bet365?s Live In-Play Console ? up to 14 dynamic
markets available. For example, Middlesbrough were as big as 25/1 In-Play
during each of their amazing UEFA Cup comeback wins, which just goes to
show that big odds (and wins!) are available for those of you who keep the
faith and choose this exciting form of betting. "
