THE PREDICTION

Crystal Palace head into this match looking to bounce back after a 4-0 defeat away at Man City last week. Previous to that defeat, the Eagles had gone three league games unbeaten so they have cause for optimism against West Ham. David Moyes’ side however, are in excellent form having won their last three Premier League games and not losing since before Christmas. Whilst the Hammers have built a solid defence, the return to fitness of Michail Antonio has proven the biggest boost yet and the powerful forward will be looking to build upon scoring the winning goal in both of West Ham’s last two league games. London rivals Palace won’t make it easy for West Ham at Selhurst Park, but with the Hammers riding the crest of a wave right now, the visitors draw no bet should be favoured here.
