Latest Crystal Palace vs West Ham team news
Crystal Palace will be without defender Joachim Andersen, who is set to join Fulham for £30 million, and could be missing Jordan Ayew as he has agreed to join Leicester City. Matheus Franca, recovering from a broken rib, will also be unavailable for Saturday's match.
Andersen's absence could open up opportunities for Nathaniel Clyne or Jefferson Lerma to start alongside Chris Richards and Marc Guehi. Cheick Doucoure could replace Will Hughes or Adam Wharton in midfield, while Ismaila Sarr may once again be on the bench.
On West Ham's side, Edson Alvarez is recovering well from a hamstring injury and will be assessed before the match. Aaron Wan-Bissaka could make his debut at right-back in place of Vladimir Coufal, and Todibo could partner new signing Kilman in centre-back.
Fullkrug will replace Michail Antonio in attack, while Summerville may continue to be on the bench if Lopetegui keeps Jarrod Bowen and Mohammed Kudus on the wings.
