Crystal Palace Preview – Can Palace take honours?
In this all-London affair against West Ham, Crystal Palace would usually fancy their chances of turning over their London rivals, especially at Selhurst Park but having registered just one win out of their last eight matches, The Eagles look far from soaring above the visitors here.
This lean period of results include just the one win which came in the shape of a 2-0 home win over basement dwellers, Sheffield United, but it also includes heavy defeats to Liverpool 7-0, Aston Villa 3-0 and a 4-0 rout away at Manchester City.
Palace are usually pretty steady at Selhurst Park too but this campaign has seen the hosts pick up just two wins out of their last eight matches which included a 4-1 win over Leeds United but defeats to Everton, Newcastle United and Liverpool show their vulnerability.
West Ham Preview – Can Hammers make it six on trot?
A rousing 4-0 home win over League One outfit, Doncaster Rovers, in the FA Cup extended West Ham’s impressive winning streak to five matches in all competitions and includes Premier League wins against Everton, Burnley and West Brom.
West Ham manager guided his side to a 1-0 win away at Everton (one of his former clubs), amidst a run of five matches unbeaten in the top flight which includes points picked up in draws with Brighton and Southampton along with winning their last three matches on the trot in the top flight.
In addition, The Hammers have lost just one of their last five away matches and have picked up earlier wins on the road at Sheffield United and Leeds United.
