West Ham United striker Michail Antonio has backed his side to beat Crystal Palace at the London Stadium tomorrow.
Michail Antonio has been speaking on The Footballer’s Football Podcast and shared his prediction for Sunday’s clash.
West Ham have picked up back-to-back wins in the Premier League with victories over Nottingham Forest and Burnley.
The Hammers were going through a bit of a slump beforehand having suffered three consecutive league defeats.
David Moyes will be hoping to pile more misery on Crystal Palace tomorrow, with the Eagles managing just one win in their last six league games.
The Scotsman will be without Antonio after the striker picked up a knee injury while on international duty with Jamaica last month.
But Antonio is backing his side to beat Palace 2-0 in East London tomorrow.

Antonio was asked for his prediction for tomorrow’s clash between West Ham and Palace.
“Mystic Mike! It doesn’t work with my own team, to be fair,” the Hammers striker responded. “I do believe it’s a win and I’m going to say 2-0 to West Ham.”
West Ham currently sit ninth in the table after a promising start to the season under Moyes.
There have been groans about the style of football. But it’s undeniable that the Scotsman continues to deliver decent results.
Palace haven’t been in the best form of late either as they continue to struggle under Roy Hodgson this season.
Eberechi Eze also looks set to miss out after being forced off with an injury last weekend at Luton Town.
In our view, West Ham will pick up a narrow 2-1 win over Hodgson’s men and continue their encouraging start to the campaign.
