Good afternoon, all, and welcome to our LIVE coverage of Crystal Palace v West Ham. After a busy week of off-pitch drama, it almost seems unfair to saddle Palace with an actual match today. However, a match they have - against Sam Allardyce's side, who have themselves been distracted, albeit by ice-bucket challenges.

Full time. Three excellent goals, one scrappy one, and an away win for West Ham. Palace haven't had a great week, have they? Thanks for joining me today.

Some nifty little passes from West Ham, but they're not really pressing to add to their goal tally.

Jedinak takes a swipe at Vaz Te's ankles, but West Ham aren't going to make a fuss about that as the clock continues to tick down.
86'
Time for a last flurry? Bolasie and Ward exchange passes on the left, but the final ball is inept.

Palace are taking too long to decide what to do when they're in front of goal, allowing West Ham to sort themselves out and pack the box.

77'
Another good save from Speroni, who really has played better than the scoreline suggests - Downing puts in a cross that's met by Sakho's head, and the keeper tips that around the post.

Not a good free kick from Jedinak, though; easily cleared.
