Crystal Palace vs West Ham United LIVE: Premier League result, final score and reaction
Follow all the action from Selhurst Park
The 2023/24 Premier League season is under way and you can follow every game and every goal right here with The Independent.
This year sees Manchester City try to defend their crown and claim a historic fourth title in succession. Pep Guardiola’s all-conquering City, who also won the Champions League and FA Cup last season, will have to see off Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester United, Liverpool and the rest to claim an unprecedented sixth league title in seven years.
Meanwhile Luton Town are making their first appearance in the Premier League, having risen from non-league in an incredible decade of progress. They followed Championship winners Burnley and second-placed Sheffield United in earning promotion to the top flight.
Follow the latest action from the Premier League below.
Crystal Palace vs West Ham United
West Ham travel to Selhurst Park aiming to push themselves up into the European places, as they currently sit eighth, 12 points behind fifth-placed Tottenham with five games to play. But they’ve lost eight of their 12 games on the road and have failed to keep a clean sheet in 13 matches, and will be looking to bounce back after their most recent outing, a 2-0 defeat by Fulham. The reverse fixture was a 1-1 draw in December, with Odsonne Edouard cancelling out Mohammed Kudus’ opener.
Crystal Palace vs West Ham United
Crystal Palace welcome West Ham to Selhurst Park hoping to build on their recent 1-0 win at Liverpool to record back-to-back victories for the first time this season. The 14th-placed Eagles are eight points clear of relegation, but their six remaining league matches are all against teams currently above them in the table, and their only win in their past 12 London derbies was 3-1 at home to Brentford in December – so victory today might be a tall order. But they’re unbeaten against the Hammers in three meetings and have outscored them 7-5 in that time.
