Prediction
The Wilfried Zaha absence looms large over this one and will request plenty from Palace’s other playmakers. The uncertain statuses of Conor Gallagher, Eberechi Eze, and Christian Benteke make it hard to pick Palace here, but if they’re good to go then this prediction will look foolish (even though the Irons are missing Kurt Zouma and Declan Rice). Palace 1-2 West Ham.
