S.P.Read Esq: West Ham v Crystal Palace
Our daily columnist and pundit S.P. Read Esq. looks ahead to the Premier League game on Saturday (12.45pm, LIVE SKY) between WEST HAM v CRYSTAL PALACE and finds the best opportunities available on Star Spreads, the home of sports spread betting.
The Sky cameras are at Upton Park for the lunchtime game between Crystal Palace and West Ham.
Palace have been reinvigorated since the arrival of Alan Pardew and face a West Ham side whose morale must surely have taken a hammer (sorry!) blow against Tottenham when conceding a penalty in the last seconds of the game and throwing away a 2-0 lead.
West Ham are having the better season and sit 12 points clear of Palace in 8th and 13th respectively.
Sam Allardyce, West Ham manager, says Brazilian striker Nene will make his debut today as Carlton Cole has a damaged hamstring.
West Ham are also without Morgan Amalfitano who is banned and Andy Carroll is out for the season with a knee injury.
Crystal Palace are boosted by the expected return of captain Mile Jedinak and James McArthur but Fraizer Campbell, Marouane Chamakh and Yaya Sanogo all miss this through injury.
The Hammers are starting to falter after an excellent season and have won just one of their last nine league games but beat Palace 3-1 at Selhurst Park at the start of the season.
