West Ham vs Crystal Palace Prediction & Betting Tips (3 December)

After a delicate series in the Premier League, West Ham was finally able to raise its head. The Hammers have just won their last 2 days, against Nottingham Forest 3-2 and Burnley 1-2. A great series which allowed them to move up to 9th place in the English championship. David Moyes' team is only 6 lengths from the top 5. It was able to build up a little more confidence by sealing its ticket for the rest of the Europa League, after its last victory against Backa Topola 0 -1. The London club can therefore approach its 14th day of the Premier League with great ambitions, this Sunday at 3:00 p.m., with the reception of Crystal Palace.

Especially since the Eagles have clearly not been at their best in recent weeks. They are currently in 13th position in the rankings. They have lost 4 of their last 5 Premier League games. Crystal Palace notably remains on 2 defeats against Everton 2-3 and Luton Town 2-1. This is clearly not the best way to prepare for one of the many London derbies. West Ham will have enough to show off its status and move a little closer to the top of the Premier League table.

Hitting the back of the net has proven relatively straightforward for Crystal Palace on their top-flight travels recently, with the coach charges doing so 17 times in 18 trips. Given that West Ham have scored in ten of their previous 10 home matches at the top table of the Premier League, it would come as a surprise to see either keeper emerge with a clean sheet.
