Sunday sees West Ham United host Everton in the Premier League at the London Stadium and the Hammers enter the match in better form.

Leicester City's slip up against Newcastle United on Friday means the race for Champions League football next season is not fully run.

The Hammers would move within two points of Leicester with three games to go if they won this, their game in hand. Everton have played one less game than West Ham, but are six points adrift of David Moyes' men. It's unlikely that the Merseyside club can finish in the top four; too many sides above them would have to capitulate. Everton's cause hasn't been helped by winning just one of their last seven top flight games, although they have been much better on the road.

I expect this match to be entertaining and to deliver goals. Michail Antonio returned from injury to score twice against Burnley last week and a striker thrives on confidence. He has scored nine league goals this season and finished the last campaign like a train when it came to finding the net. West Ham know that this is their best chance of a high finish since 1986 and I expect they will throw the kitchen sink at their remaining games. They should be able to carve the chances to score today and I am backing Antonio to find the net at any stage in the 90 minutes.

Football recommendation: Michail Antonio to score anytime for West Ham against Everton in the Premier League - 7/5

Good luck!
