Match Preview
David Moyes had come under pressure just over a month ago after seeing West Ham slip down the league standings. However, the coach has masterminded an excellent return to form in recent weeks. The Hammers come into this match at the London Stadium after winning each of their previous two, and a third straight win could lift them up to eighth.
Instead, the pressure will be on Roy Hodgson this weekend, as Crystal Palace come into this fixture after suffering four defeats in their previous five. They have also suffered defeats in each of their previous two matches, which leaves the Eagles sitting ten points above the bottom three places in the standings.

West Ham suffered defeats in each of their Premier League matches with the Eagles last term, which is more defeats than they had suffered in their previous 14 league matches against Palace. However, the Hammers have never suffered three straight defeats in the league against the Eagles in their history.
Palace will take confidence from the fact that they are unbeaten in their previous four away matches against the Eagles. Over that period, they have won twice and played out draws on two occasions. An interesting betting trend is the fact that both sides have scored at least once in each of the last 12 Premier League meetings between these sides.
West Ham vs Crystal Palace Prediction
A huge chance will be taken on Palace this weekend, as they could take full advantage of West Ham’s midweek European commitment. The Eagles could be great value in the betting, and they are unbeaten in their last four visits to East London.
