West Ham United manager Slaven Bilic has admitted that his side need to pick up more wins at the London Stadium before they feel at home.
The Hammers have accrued just four points from their four Premier League outings at their new ground since moving from Upton Park at the end of last season.
That form has contributed to the club sitting in the relegation zone after seven games of the season, but Bilic rejected suggestions that they could be relieved to be facing Crystal Palace away rather than at home this weekend.
"Make no mistake, we would rather play at home because there we feel the 60,000 people. Of course it is not a relief, we would like to play Palace at home on Saturday," he told reporters.
"The stadium is not a reason, the stadium is great. Many clubs changed stadiums and needed time to settle in, to get used to the stadium. It is great stadium but we have to win a few games to feel more at home."
The Hammers have failed to pick up a single point on their travels so far this season.
