Premier League
After losing their first three matches of the season, West Ham surprised with a 3:0 away win against Nottingham. This gave hope to manager Graham Potter, but last week his team immediately returned to losses after a 0:3 home defeat to Tottenham. Thus, the coach's seat continues to be shaky, and there are already rumors that if there is no improvement, he could be replaced by recently dismissed Nuno Espírito Santo from Nottingham. Otherwise, every match of West Ham this season has had over 2.5 goals.
Crystal Palace has already played eight matches in all competitions and has not suffered a single defeat in them. However, draws are predominant, with as many as six of those eight matches ending in a tie in regular time. Only two of them had over 2.5 goals. They have achieved one victory in the league so far, which came with a 3:0 away win against Aston Villa.
Prediction: X2 double chanceAt the moment, West Ham does not look like a team that will inflict the first loss on Crystal Palace for the season. Moreover, Palace has not lost in their last six visits to this opponent, and I think this trend will continue.
