Crystal Palace welcome West Ham United to Selhurst Park on Monday, with the visitors looking to continue their push for survival.

Nuno Espirito Santo’s side picked up a huge victory last time out, with the Hammers beating Wolves 4-0 at the London Stadium to climb out of the bottom three for the first time in 2026.

Kostas Mavropanos and Taty Castellanos would both net a brace on the night, with Nuno’s men showing serious character after a far from pretty first half.

Making the trip to South London, they take on a Crystal Palace side fresh from securing their spot in the Conference League semi-finals after beating Fiorentina over two legs.

Looking to catch the Eagles off guard after their European exploits, the Irons have their sights set on strengthening their survival chances as the run-in approaches.

How to watch Crystal Palace vs West Ham

Heading into Monday, Nuno’s side know that they have the chance to react to the respective results of their relegation rivals.

After a dismal period heading into the new year, West Ham left themselves with a lot of work to do, but have responded fantastically in 2026, leaving the Hammers well-placed to go on and secure their place in the Premier League.

In the UK, fans not in attendance will be able to catch the action on Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Premier League, with the Monday Night Football programme beginning at 6:30 pm.

Alongside this, Sky Sports subscribers will have the option to watch if on the move, with the Sky Go app and website also providing streaming options for the coverage.

West Ham will look to deepen Crystal Palace Monday woes

When it comes to fixtures on a Monday, West Ham do not have the best of records.

Across their last five, the Hammers are winless, with two draws and three losses, though 10 wins out of the 12 before this make for a much better record than Palace.

Across their last 25 Monday matches, the Eagles have won just three times, with 10 draws and 12 losses making up the remainder of this run.

Monday’s hosts have won four of their last seven top-flight matches, having gone nine without a win beforehand – not helped by the announcement detailing Oliver Glasner’s departure at the end of the season.

Though with West Ham on form, and Palace potentially distracted by continental commitments, the Hammers will be fired up to go and take all three points in South London, extending the Eagles’ woes on a Monday in the process.
