Crystal Palace allegedly could be without four key players for Sunday’s Premier League clash with West Ham United.
That’s according to Football.London who claim that Odsonne Edouard, Cheick Doucoure, Chris Richards and James McArthur could be miss out for Palace against the Hammers.
The game on Sunday is an absolute must-win for West Ham. We need to beat Leicester City as well the following week if we are to head into the World Cup break in decent shape.
A slow start to the season has put the Hammers behind the eight-ball in the race for the European spots.
In spite of that, a win against Palace on Sunday will lift us above the south London outfit in the Premier League table.
And it seems as though the East London side will have a good chance of doing just that…
Crystal Palace could be without four key players for West Ham
The Eagles have been dealt a big double blow with news that Odsonne Edouard and Cheick Doucoure could now be out of the Hammers clash.
In addition to those two players, Chris Richards and James McArthur are still unavailable.
It seems like Sunday will be a massive chance for West Ham to get back on track.
David Moyes’s side will be playing at home with 60,000 fans behind the players. It will be paramount for us to take the game to the visitors from the very first whistle.
West Ham need to be more proactive rather than reactive. And that attitude must stem from Moyes.
The Scot has the players at his disposal now to implement an exciting brand of football.
Crystal Palace really shouldn’t be able to live with West Ham. And the latest injury news should be a huge boost for the Hammers heading into the game.
