West Ham United Betting Preview
West Ham United fell just short in the first game against Aston Villa. The defense struggled early and they gave up a goal in the 4th minute. In the 37th minute, West Ham United got a penalty kick and Lucas Paqueta scored. The defense brokdown in the second half and they gave up a goal in the 79th minute. They had 53 percent of the possession and three shots on target. Edson Alvarez was hurt this summer while competing for Mexico and the hamstring injury is going to keep him out.
Crystal Palace Betting Preview
Crystal Palace in the first game of the Premier League season faced off against Brentford and they fell short as they were defeated 2-1. The score was 2-1, but the only goal that Crystal Palace gave up was in the 46th minute. Crystal Palace had 54 percent of the possession and six shots on target. Joachim Andersen is being moved over to Fulham which mean he’s played his last game for Crystal Palace. Matheus Franca is almost back, but he’s still dealing with a rib injury and he’s not ready to be back here.
Crystal Palace vs West Ham United Prediction
Both of the back ends of these defenses are a problem, and it’s going to be a big problem early in this game. This is a game that could be 2-2 before they even go into the halftime break. I expect Crystal Palace and West Ham United are both going to find the back of the net a few times and the over is going to end up cashing.
