West Ham United open their doors to Crystal Palace for another exciting Premier League fixture here at London Stadium.

Crystal Palace could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Carabao Cup game only four sleeps ago. That game was also an away game, at Watford. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.

This is a match between teams from the same area, a local derby. The community is buzzing.
