The international break is over – and we’re all pleased by that, right?
Slaven Bilic’s in-form Hammers side host Crystal Palace this weekend as they try and keep up pressure on the top four.
Unbeaten in five in league games, West Ham haven’t lost since February 6th – a run Slaven would undoubtedly like to continue.

The Hammers haven’t lost at home in the league since the 22nd of August. Newly promoted Bournemouth taking the spoils that day.
Since then, however, it’s been plain sailing for Bilic’s men.
