Crystal Palace vs West Ham live stream: How to watch Amazon Prime Premier League fixture online and on TV

Manuel Pellegrini’s side are looking to secure back-to-back league wins for the first time since August

(PA)

West Ham are hoping to pick up back-to-back Premier League wins for the first time since August when they face London rivals Crystal Palace on Boxing Day.

Manuel Pellegrini is still facing a fight to save his job, after The Independent revealed David Moyes was set to return to the London Stadium had the Hammers suffered defeat by Southampton, but a win against Palace would go a long way to restoring confidence.

Roy Hodson’s side have lost momentum in recent weeks, taking just two points from games against fellow relegation rivals Watford, Brighton and Newcastle.

However, they remain 12th in the Premier League table, four points clear of West Ham and a further four clear of the relegation zone.

What is the team news?

Mamadou Sakho is able to return after completing his three-match suspension. Gary Cahill, Jairo Riedewald, Joel Ward, Jeffrey Schlupp and Andros Townsend all missed the club’s defeat by Newcastle.

Pellegrini is fretting over the fitness of goalkeepers Lukasz Fabianksi and David Martin, with the disastrous Roberto potentially forced to return to the starting eleven. Manuel Lanzini and Jack Wilshere remain unfit while Ryan Fredericks is suspended.

Crystal Palace: Guaita; Kelly, Sakho, Tomkins, Van Aanholt; Milivojevic, McArthur, Kouyaté, Ayew, Benteke, Zaha.
