Third concecutive win for the 'hammers'

Acomfortable win for West Ham in the midweek game against Cardiff (3-1). They scored all their three goals in the first quarter of the second half, leaving no space for reaction to their opponent, who managed to score a consolation goal at 90'+5. That was the second concecutive win for M.Pellegrini's team that put them in 13th place of the table, having 9 more points from relegation zone. Team's first scorer M.Arnautovic was injured in the game against Cardiff and so he won't perform tonight, his substitute Lucas Perez did great though, he entered the game and scored a brace. Defenders A.Cresswell, R. Fredericks, midfielder  C.Sánchez and attacker A.Yarmolenko won't perform either.

A quite disappointing performance for Crystal Palace in the midweek game in Brighton's home. Although they performed with a man more from 28', they didn't make the overturn. Moreover their opponent scored twice before the end of the half. Milivojevic scored a goal from the penalty spot before the end of the match and formed the final 3-1. Now R.Hodgson's team are in 15th place, having 3 more points from the relegation zone. Attackers C.Benteke and C.Wickham are still out.

West Ham are doing great lately, while Crystal Palace can't be trusted in away games (2-1-5). Based on their recent h2h games (3 wins and 3 draws for West Ham), home win at 2.31 will be my call.
