Team News: Slaven Bilic makes three changes

Bilic makes three changes

West Ham United manager Slaven Bilic has made three changes for the London derby at Crystal Palace this evening.

Aaron Cresswell makes his first appearance of the season, having suffered a knee injury in pre-season, coming into the back four at the expense of Alvaro Arbeloa.

Simone Zaza and Manuel Lanzini come back into the side to partner Dimitri Payet up front, with Gokhan Tore ruled out with a thigh injury over the international break.

For the hosts, Alan Pardew names an unchanged side from the XI that claimed a 1-1 draw at Everton last time out.

Christian Benteke, who claimed the equaliser at Goodison Park, continues to lead the line, with support from Jason Puncheon, Andros Townsend and Wilfried Zaha.

Crystal Palace: Mandanda; Ward, Tomkins, Delaney, Kelly; McArthur, Ledley; Puncheon, Townsend, Zaha; Benteke Subs: Hennessey, Fryers, Cabaye, Lee, Sako, Wickham, Campbell

West Ham United: Adrian; Adrian; Antonio, Reid, Ogbonna, Cresswell; Noble, Obiang, Kouyate; Lanzini, Zaza, Payet Subs: Spiegel, Nordtveit, Feghouli, Collins, Fletcher, Calleri, Fernandes
