Betting Spy: Back big Andy Carroll to hit back of the net

This betting business is a form game which is why it could pay to side with a striker in rude health at Upton Park this weekend.

Andy Carroll is his name. And causing chaos in opposition boxes has been his game in the last few weeks.

The big man is virtually unplayable when he’s in the mood.

And luckily for Hammers everywhere something has clicked into gear recently.

Carroll gave Nemanja Vidic a torrid time this week but didn’t sneak on the score sheet against Man Utd.

On Saturday he’s up against the far less formidable Wigan back line who have one of the worst defensive records in the league.

West Ham and Carroll will be all guns blazing for this one as they push for a top half finish.

Paddy Power quote 13/8 on Carroll scoring at any time which looks a decent punt while it’s also 9/1 about him bagging two or more which seems worth a go as well.

After a disastrous start to the year Betting Spy has had a successful few weeks with Paolo di Canio’s Sunderland doing us a 3/1 favour last week.

And it looks like our FA cup tip could pay a handsome dividend after we highlighted Man City at 9/2 in January.

The last few weeks of the Premier League are always compulsive viewing with all the action at the bottom this year.

Man Utd would have to suffer the mother of all chokes to lose the title now so all eyes are on the relegation fight.

QPR and Reading look doomed but Stoke are in horrible form and look a punt at 9/2 to fill that third spot.

If they lose away on Saturday to Harry Redknapp’s Rangers then expect that price to disappear faster than a foreign footballing “superstar” when they see next season’s Championship fixtures.
