West Ham United will play host to Crystal Palace at the London Stadium in a game that could determine the future of the Hammers’ manager, Graham Potter. A poor start to the 2025/26 campaign has left West Ham United languishing in 18th spot in the standings while Palace are ninth. We have a prediction for the match below.
While both sides have managed just one win in their four matches, it is the Hammers who are under pressure. Home matches have in particular been uncomfortable, so far both ending in heavy defeats. In the long run they haven't done well at home either, winning just one of the last 10 league matches there.
On the other hand, positivity reigns at Crystal Palace after satisfactory performances from last season earned them good tidings and player sales in the recent transfer window. While Potter is under fire, his opposite number, Oliver Glasner, is enjoying peaceful moments and support.

West Ham - Crystal Palace: Form Analysis
If there is a moment the West Ham United manager needs a win, it has to be now. He needs a positive, consistent run to not only save his job but also restore the smiles across the Hammers’ fan base.
Before the international break there was some positivity at the London Stadium following a 3-0 win over Nottingham Forest. However, all the joy died down as another London derby they were involved in ended 3-0, not in their favor but with them beaten by Tottenham.
Their first two home matches were derbies, and the Hammers lost heavily. If it were their wish, another derby would have waited.
Palace are unbeaten in their last five away London derbies.
For a team hungry for three points, Crystal Palace are happy to find West Ham United where they are. For starters, Palace are unbeaten in five away matches in London derbies, winning three and drawing two.
They haven't won much this season but have shown all the signs of getting their stuff right under Oliver Glasner. Palace are coming from a win on penalties over Millwall in the League Cup, after a 1-1 draw, while their only win in the league was the 3-0 victory at Aston Villa.
The cross-cutting difference between Palace and West Ham United is Palace’s defensive solidity. In their opening eight matches this season, they have five clean sheets.

West Ham & Crystal Palace Squad Analysis
The need for goals has seen Lucas Paqueta pushed to a more advanced position, and it is paying off as he enters this game on two goals. Leading a forward line that also has Jarrod Bowen and Crysencio Summerville, there is a likelihood the Brazilian will have another goal contribution.
If need be, Callum Wilson can be a key player here as well. The forward has been involved in five goals in his last five Premier League starts against Palace.
West Ham United’s Tomas Soucek is suspended after his sending off against Tottenham.
Meanwhile, the West Ham United defence must keep an eye on Jean-Philippe Mateta. The Frenchman has four goals in his last three matches against West Ham. Palace would have been even more lethal in attack, but Ismaila Sarr, who has two goals, and Adam Wharton are both sidelined by injury. Both players are expected back late in September or early October.

Our West Ham vs Crystal Palace Prediction
Going by the numbers, it is safe to say Graham Potter’s fate is sealed. It is a matter of when and no longer if. West Ham enter this game with a poor run, and not even playing at home seems inspiring. They haven't won any of the last seven home league matches, and here they face one of the most solid sides around.
Crystal Palace isn’t easy to break down, and going forward they have a constant threat in Mateta. Our prediction for West Ham United v Crystal Palace is that Crystal Palace wins the match.
