Crystal Palace host West Ham United in a London derby between two in-form sides looking to strengthen their mid-table ambitions. As West Ham are not regarded as good travellers, we predict a 2-1 home win. Palace come into this fixture after a 2-1 win over Newcastle, extending a superb run that has lifted them to 2.10 points per game. The Eagles are especially strong defensively, conceding just 0.60 goals per match and keeping 50% clean sheets, while at home they are even more dominant with just 0.17 goals conceded on average and an 83% clean sheet rate. Their xG (1.54) and xGA (1.05) highlight a well-balanced and efficient side. Jean-Philippe Mateta is pushing for a start after his brace off the bench, adding further attacking threat.
West Ham head into the local derby in good spirits after a 4-0 win over Wolves, with no new injury concerns. Their form shows steady progress at 1.40 points per game, with a decent away record (1.50 points per game). They score 1.40 goals per match but struggle slightly away from home at 1.00 per game, while conceding 1.30 overall. Their xGA of 1.89 suggests defensive vulnerabilities, particularly under pressure. H2H history strongly favours goals, with 75% BTTS and 64% over 2.5 across meetings.
Given Palace's strong defensive home record and Mateta impact, Home Win should be considered, alongside BTTS and Over 2.5 goals (high historical scoring rate in this fixture).
This Premier League match will be played on Monday 20 April 2026 at 20:00.
