Preview
- Date- Saturday, 24 August, 2024
- Kick-off Time- 2:00 pm GMT
- Venue- Selhurst Park
Both Crystal Palace and West Ham United will look to bounce back after a defeat in the opening game of the Premier League. They face each other at Selhurst Park on Saturday afternoon. Crystal Palace were undefeated in their pre-season before going down 2-1 to Brentford. Palace will return to Selhurst Park, where they won their final four home matches of last season by an aggregate score of 16-2 and have also won their last two home meetings with West Ham United, including the aforementioned seven-goal triumph in April.
On the other hand, Julen Lopetegui started his tenure with the Hammers with a defeat against Aston Villa. Lucas Paqueta scored a penalty in the 37th minute to level terms, but things changed after John Duran scored the winner in the 79th minute. West Ham head into Saturday’s contest having lost each of their last three Premier League games against fellow London teams, with their last two seeing them lose 5-2 at Palace.
Team News
Crystal Palace Team News
Crystal Palace did not start the Premier League like they would have wanted. A 1-2 defeat against Brentford is something they will look to improve upon. Eberechi Eze and Adam Wharton were the brightest among the first team in that game.
For the second game of the league, they would be without the services of 20-year-old Matheus Franca who is expected to return in mid-September.
West Ham United Team News
The Hammers also started their campaign with a 1-2 defeat to Aston Villa. They looked good in the game with a 2.4xG but due to missed chances could not materialize a win. Lucas Paqueta was the lone scorer for their team in that game.
In the game against Crystal Palace, they will miss Kurt Zouma and the presence of Edson Alvarez also remains doubtful.
