Both Crystal Palace and West Ham will be looking for their first wins of the 2024/25 Premier League season when they lock horns against each other at Selhurst Park on Saturday.
The Eagles are a revitalized team under Oliver Glasner, who was appointed manager in February this year. Despite a turbulent start to the season, the Eagles finished 2023/24 in tenth place on the table. They will be looking for full points from the London derby after starting the new season with a 1-2 loss to Brentford.
The Hammers also changed managers in the offseason, with Julen Lopetegui taking over from David Moyes. They kicked off the new Premier League season with a 1-2 defeat at Aston Villa.
