West Ham United will be looking to continue their impressive recent form in the Premier League on Sunday when the Irons welcome Crystal Palace to the London Stadium. The visitors will be searching for a response after losing each of their last two.
Premier League Preview
West Ham have battled back to form in excellent style in recent weeks to ease the pressure on David Moyes. The Hammers come into the weekend sitting ninth in the standings after winning each of their previous two, which has been an excellent response after losing three on the bounce in the Premier League.
West Ham could continue their rise up the league standings on Sunday, as a victory could see them end the weekend as high as eighth. However, even a defeat wouldn’t see them drop into the bottom half. The Hammers picked up a second straight win in the league last weekend, as they recorded a fine 2-1 success at Turf Moor against Burnley.
Crystal Palace will be the visitors to the London Stadium on Sunday, as the Eagles look to get back on track after losing each of their previous two in the league. Defeats have been too common for Roy Hodgson’s liking in recent months, as the Eagles have suffered four defeats in their last five matches in the top-flight.
That run of form sees Palace come into the weekend sitting 13th in the standings. However, a win on the road could see them move up to tenth. Their position above the drop zone currently looks secure, as they boast a ten-point advantage over Sheffield United. But, a much better performance will be needed on Sunday following a 2-1 away defeat against Luton Town in their previous fixture.
West Ham United vs Crystal Palace Head to Head
Palace have been excellent against the Hammers in recent clashes, as they have won each of the previous two. That includes a success in this exact fixture last season. Meanwhile, West Ham are winless in their last four home matches against the Eagles since a 3-2 win in 2018.
West Ham United vs Crystal Palace Prediction
This fixture could be lined up for Palace to get back on track. The Eagles boast an impressive record against the Hammers, and they could take full value of the fact that the West Ham have been in midweek European action.
