In-form West Ham will be looking to make it six wins in a row across all competitions this week when they take on Crystal Palace. The match schedules for Tuesday at Selhurst Park, with kickoff at 9 pm.
The Hammers made it through the fifth round of the FA Cup and are currently seventh in the league. This is nine points better off than the Palace side with only one win in their last matches across all competitions.
It was a dominant display of brilliance as West Ham eased past Doncaster Rovers in the FA Cup with a 4-0 win on Saturday. It marked the first time have scored more in a home tie in the competition for over a decade.
Everything is looking up for David Moyes, who managed to twist the tale at the beginning of his managerial career at London Stadium. A victory this Tuesday will mark the first time the Scotsman won four consecutive Premier League matches since December 13 when in charge of Manchester United.
The Eagles continue searching for momentum this season after a troubled start to the season. However, the side has taken off Tottenham, Leicester City, and Arsenal over the past five weeks.
