WEST HAM VS CRYSTAL PALACE: STATS & FACTS
West Ham have beaten Palace on just one occasion in the previous five meetings between the sides in the Premier League. That victory came last season, as they picked up a 3-2 success at Selhurst Park. The previous meeting between the sides last season was a 1-1 draw. Also, after losing their first two PL away games against West Ham, Crystal Palace have lost just two of their subsequent eight visits to the Hammers in the competition (W3, D3), suggesting that this will not be a stroll in the park for West Ham. However, Crystal Palace are yet to score under Patrick Vieira and could pay the price if they don’t find their feet here - last time out against Leicester, Michail Antonio became West Ham’s all-time highest goalscorer in the Premier League, netting his 48th and 49th goals, and will be dead certain to punish the Eagles’ lack of mettle.
WEST HAM VS CRYSTAL PALACE: PRE-MATCH TALK
The Hammers beat Newcastle on the opening day of the season before they picked up a stunning victory on Monday night to make it two wins from two. They were excellent against Leicester, as they earned a 4-1 victory. Pablo Fornals and Said Benrahma gave the Hammers a 2-0 lead, before two goals from Michail Antonio in the final ten minutes wrapped up the big win. David Moyes has done an excellent job at West Ham to this point, but there is certainly a feeling that there is more to come. Consistency throughout this season could put them on the brink of European qualification, and on their displays so far this campaign, they could more than be up for that challenge.
As for Crystal Palace, Patrick Vieira is still waiting for his first PL win as Crystal Palace manager, as the Eagles have picked up one point from the two games so far. Palace were handsomely beaten in their opening fixture, as Chelsea hammered them 3-0 at Stamford Bridge. However, they were able to get a first point of the new season this past weekend, as they drew 0-0 with Brentford at Selhurst Park. Whether Vieira can build on this and steer Palace well clear of a relegation battle remains to be seen on the evidence of another disjointed display.
WEST HAM VS CRYSTAL PALACE: TEAM NEWS
While Michail Antonio has made the headlines with his record-breaking goals, Pablo Fornals and Said Benrahma showed that a possible Jesse Lingard-shaped hole could be filled by others. David Moyes says he is hoping to add to this squad before the window closes. But he only wants to bring in players who will make this team better. For Saturday afternoon, and with all players available, Moyes will probably stick with the same starting XI that came from behind to beat Newcastle and demolished 10-men Leicester at the weekend.
Meanwhile, Conor Gallagher made his debut for the Eagles after being ineligible against his parent club Chelsea last weekend, while Joachim Andersen made his first start after coming on as a substitute at Stamford Bridge. Christian Benteke was also recalled, with Jordan Ayew, Jairo Riedewald, and Jean-Philippe Mateta dropped to the bench. With the Carabao Cup against Watford in midweek, and giving the likes of Butland and James Tomkins the chance to show the new manager what they are capable of, Vieira is expected to field out the strongest possible XI against the Hammers.

West Ham have been excellent to watch in the early weeks of the season, and it looks as though they have the players to get the win against Palace this weekend. The Eagles haven’t offered much in the attacking third, and it’s unlikely that they will outscore the Hammers at the Olympic Stadium.
