Crystal Palace lost the opening game of the season last weekend against Brentford, but now the Eagles are back at Selhurst Park.
The first game of the season at home, and it will be without two players who have played huge parts in the recent history of Crystal Palace.
Joachim Andersen is set to join Fulham, while Jordan Ayew is Leicester City bound meaning neither will feature on Saturday against the Hammers.
Oliver Glasner confirmed this during his pre-match press conference, as quoted by club media.
“Joachim won’t be available tomorrow. He’s in final negotiations [with Fulham]. The same with Jordan Ayew [and Leicester].”
The Crystal Palace boss also added that Will Hughes is sick and will miss out along with Matheus Franca who has a broken rib.
But there is still a strong group to choose from, here is how we think Glasner will line-up.
How will Crystal Palace line-up against West Ham
Crystal Palace will be desperate to bounce back against West Ham with the loss to Brentford definitely a blow. So we expect a strong eleven to be named at Selhurst Park, here is our prediction.
Dean Henderson
Dean Henderson will be disappointed with last weekend, but he is the clear No.1 in goal for the Eagles and will start here.
Chris Richards
Moving into a much talked about central defence position, Chris Richards seems like he is the only surety to stay from the three who began the season.
Marc Guehi
Marc Guehi’s future is far from decided, with Crystal Palace accepting they may have to sell. But this weekend at least, he is in line to start.
Chadi Riad
Replacing Fulham-bound Joachim Andersen in defence is Chadi Riad for his first competitive start since joining this summer.
Daniel Munoz
At right wing-back, there is little other option than Daniel Munoz with the Colombian a key fixture for Glasner.
Jefferson Lerma
Moving into midfield, Will Hughes might be dropped through illness with Jefferson Lerma surely ready to play and get back to his best after a long summer.
Adam Wharton
Season number two continues for Adam Wharton and we expect that he will once again start for the Eagles in this game after a solid opening display against Brentford.
Tyrick Mitchell
On the left, the importance of Tyrick Mitchell just continues to grow. Even with a potential addition this summer, Mitchell will still likely be the starting left wing-back.
Ebere Eze
It looks more and more likely that Ebere Eze will be the only star retained this summer from the four Crystal Palace would not have wanted to lose, but this only makes it more vital that he impresses.
Eze’s free-kick goal last week was unfortunately disallowed, but another strike like that this weekend would be more than welcomed.
Daichi Kamada
Alongside Eze, Daichi Kamada will start once again with his importance also becoming crystal clear, moments of quality in his debut, but fans are eager to see more from Kamada.

Jean-Philippe Mateta
Up top, big Jean-Philippe Mateta will likely start once again as he looks to replicate his form from last season, hopefully, Selhurst Park will get to hear that famous song on Saturday.
