Crystal Palace vs West Ham United Previous Meetings

In competitive competitions throughout their histories these two sides have met on 68 different occasions. This being the 69th game between the two.

Although it is close West Ham have a slight advantage having won 25 games to Palace’s 19. However there have been 24 draws during that time.

The last time these two sides met in the league was back in April ending in a 5-2 win to Crystal Palace. With goals from Michael Olise and Eberechi Eze as well as a Jean Phillip Mateta double and Emerson own goal cancelling out a goal from Michael Antonio and a own goal from Dean Henderson.

There were a lot of goals in that fixture but will we see a similar thing again in this one?

Crystal Palace vs West Ham United Team News & Predicted Lineups

Coming into this game neither side is expected to be missing anyone new through injury.

Oliver Glasner’s side will likely remain without Matheus Franca. They will also likely be without Joachim Anderson as he is on the verge of finalising a move to Fulham.

The Hammers on the other hand will have to remain without only absentee Edson Alvarez who suffered a hamstring injury during Copa America.

Crystal Palace - Dean Henderson, Marc Guehi, Jefferson Lerma, Chris Richards, Tyrick Mitchell, Cheick Doucoure, Adam Wharton, Daniel Munoz, Daichi Kamada, Eberechi Eze, Odsonne Edouard

West Ham United - Alphonse Areola, Emerson, Jean-Clair Todibo, Max Kilman, Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Tomas Soucek, Guido Rodriguez, Lucas Paqueta, Mohammed Kudus, Jarrod Bowen, Niclas Fullkrug

Crystal Palace vs West Ham United Player To Watch - Niclas Fullkrug

Unfortunately, Fullkrug didn’t get a start in West Ham’s last game against Aston Villa but he did get minutes on the pitch. The suggestion is that he may be in line to start this game and if he does he will be one to watch.

West Ham forked out a fee of around £27 million for the 31 year old placing high expectations on his shoulders.

However if he can show his form from the Euros, where he managed 2 goals in 5 games, or from last season in the Bundesliga, where he managed 12 goals in 31 games, he will certainly be the main man for Lopetegui’s side going forward.

He will be one to look out for if he does start in this game.

Crystal Palace vs West Ham United Prediction

Similarly to how these games have gone in the past we are expecting a lot of goals. This one is bound to be a free flowing game with both sides creating plenty of chances and surely scoring plenty of goals. It will simply be a case of who makes fewer mistakes.

And that being said we feel as though Julen Lopetegui’s side just has the slight advantage over Palace when it comes to taking their chances.

Therefore, our team of professional tipping experts are backing a West Ham Win and Over 2.5 Match Goals in this game. £10 has the potential to return up to £49 with odds of 39/10. This making it our best value pick for this match.

Where To Watch Crystal Palace vs West Ham United

This game is set to get underway on Saturday 24th August 2024 at 15:00 pm. Unfortunately, due to the 3pm blackout in the UK this game is unavailable to watch live.
