West Ham United will endeavour to claim a fifth successive victory in all competitions when they welcome Crystal Palace to the London Stadium for a Premier League clash on Sunday.
The Eagles, meanwhile, are seeking to avoid a third consecutive league defeat after losing their last two games to teams inside the bottom four.
David Moyes's men left it late to claim all three points as Tomas Soucek netted an 89th-minute winner, his third successive match-winner is as many games for the Hammers, who now require just a point from their final fixture against Freiburg to secure top spot in Group A and guarantee their place in the last 16.
Only Real Madrid have won as many European games as West Ham (22) since the start of the 2021-22 season, while their form in recent weeks across all competitions has been impressive as they have won five of their last six matches, including each of their last four.
The Hammers have also won their last three home games in a row, but coming out on top in Saturday's clash with Crystal Palace is not a given as they have failed to win any of their previous four meetings with the Eagles at the London Stadium, while they lost both home and away encounters last season.
