The Premier League’s relegation zone heats up on Tuesday as four struggling teams battle for survival. Leicester, under new manager Ruud van Nistelrooy, host West Ham, while Ipswich Town welcome Crystal Palace.

Just six points separate these clubs, from West Ham in 14th to Ipswich in 19th, adding urgency to every match.

Leicester’s Challenge Under New Leadership

Van Nistelrooy takes charge of Leicester after witnessing their 4-1 defeat at Brentford on Saturday.

His team’s recent form—four losses and one draw—presents a daunting challenge, even with the “new manager bounce.”

West Ham, meanwhile, are looking to rebound after a crushing 5-2 defeat against Arsenal.

The Hammers have shown they can deliver against top sides, with recent victories over Manchester United and Newcastle. Jarrod Bowen, at 15/2 to score first (Unibet), could be key to their success.

West Ham are favorites for the win at 6/4 (bet365, Betfair) with the over 3.5 goals market appealing at 2/1.

Ipswich vs. Crystal Palace: A Battle for Consistency

Ipswich, narrowly beaten by a Chris Wood penalty at Nottingham Forest, are desperate for points. Crystal Palace, coming off a draw with Newcastle, continue to underperform.

This clash at Portman Road might end in a stalemate, with a draw priced at 5/2 (William Hill, Ladbrokes).

Ipswich’s Liam Delap is 11/4 (Paddy Power) to score, while Palace’s Eddie Nketiah offers value at 27/10 (Unibet).

Betting Tips and Beyond

  • Player Specials: Aaron Wan-Bissaka is 22/1 (Paddy Power) to score for the third consecutive game for West Ham.
  • Darts Insight: In other sports news, Luke Littler offers potential value at 5/4 (Ladbrokes) for second place in the BBC Sports Personality of the Year race.

Leicester’s clash with West Ham and Ipswich’s battle with Palace are pivotal in the relegation fight. As Van Nistelrooy looks to inspire a turnaround and Ipswich cling to survival hopes, this midweek slate promises drama and crucial points.
