West Ham Utd v Crystal Palace: live

West Ham could go four points clear at the top of the nPower Championship should they manage to defeat Crystal Palace at the Boleyn Ground this afternoon.

Sam Allardyce's side take on the club formerly known as the Glaziers in today's early kick-off knowing that a win would send them four points clear of second placed Southampton - if only for a few hours.
