A season that promised so much for West Ham United has developed into something of a nightmare, with the signing of the Argentinean duo of Carlos Tevez and Javier Mascherano not working out as planned, a convoluted takeover of the club and the departure of Alan Pardew as manager.
Today sees them take on Fulham, with the former captain of The Cottagers, Luis Boa Morte, set to make his debut for The Hammers against his old club.
The ex-player factor often seems to have a bearing in such games and with West Ham's need for the points being greater than Fulham's, this could be the match where they finally kick-start their campaign.
West Ham have players absent in the likes of Dean Ashton, Anton Ferdinand and Lee Bowyer but, player-for-player, they should still be capable of seeing off a Fulham side that have really been playing above themselves this term.
The 6-5 available on the West Ham victory with Totesport looks a decent price, while the 12-1 with Coral for Boa Morte to score the first goal.
