Graham Potter won his first home game in charge of the Hammers on Tuesday night, with his side beating capital counterparts Fulham 3-2.

Another home game offers the chance to build on that, albeit they are playing an improving Palace side. Oliver Glasner’s men beat Leicester 2-0 on Wednesday night to extend their unbeaten run to four games. Here’s everything you need to know about the match today.
