What is at stake for West Ham United and Crystal Palace?

With time running out, Graham Potter will need to get results flooding in or face the axe at West Ham following their stuttering start to the new campaign.

Potter watched on as the Hammers were left battered by Tottenham last Saturday when they fell to a 3-0 defeat after conceding three goals in a 19-minute second-half spell at the London Stadium.

Last week’s result leaves West Ham with four defeats from five games this season, a run which has seen them crash out of the EFL Cup courtesy of a 3-2 loss against Wolverhampton Wanderers on August 26.

On the other hand, Oliver Glasner continues to wave his magic wand at Crystal Palace as they head into this weekend’s tie unbeaten in each of their eight matches this season.

The recently-crowned Community Shield winners avoided an upset in the EFL Cup third round on Tuesday, when they needed penalties to see off Millwall after giving up their one-goal lead in the 91st minute at Selhurst Park.

Crystal Palace have just about had the upper hand against West Ham over their last 10 meetings, having recorded four wins, one more than the Hammers' three, and they will look to keep the ball rolling this weekend by extending their unbeaten streak at the London Stadium.
