Slaven Bilic needs to find a winning formula desperately and turn West Ham's season around.
The Hammers have only won one league game this term and sit in 18th place.
The Croatian has been under immense pressure all season and may need to shuffle the pack to help get his side back to winning ways.
West Ham have been extremely unlucky with injuries, missing a number of key players who helped them to seventh place last season.
Aaron Cresswell has been out since pre-season while Andy Carroll also picked up a knee injury after the first game of the campaign. Record-signing Andre Ayew only managed 34 minutes before limping off with a hamstring injury and will be sidelined until next month.
Bilic will have to dig deep and use his full squad to have any chance against a Crystal Palace side that are unbeaten in four games.
Here is the starting XI we think he should pick...
GK - ADRIAN
Adrian is a certainty to start between the sticks on Saturday as one of the few Hammers to be playing at a respectable level.
While the 29-year-old has conceded the most goals so far this season, he also ranks joint top with Artur Boruc for saves made.
What the Spaniard needs is a defence that will stop clear-cut chances against him. Adrian is a superb shot-stopper so if they manage that, he is sure to do the rest.
RB - ALVARO ARBELOA
Alvaro Arbeloa can’t take much of the blame for West Ham’s position this season, simply because he hasn’t been there that long.
The Hammers actually looked more solid when he came on in the seventh minute against Middlesbrough, although he didn’t have the best of games against Southampton.
We’ve opted for him above Sam Byram regardless of whether the Englishmen recovers from his hamstring niggle, with the Spaniard more suitable for providing defensive stability and allowing Antonio to attack down the right.
CB - WINSTON REID
West Ham desperately need brave defenders who are strong in the air to deal with the aerial threat of Palace’s Christian Benteke.
Standing at six feet three inches, 28-year-old needs to step up and show what he is made of if the Hammers are to stand any chance of a shutout.
Reid returned from international duty in plenty of time despite travelling from New Zealand and should, therefore, make an appearance against Alan Pardew’s side.
CB - ANGELO OGBONNA
It was tough to call as to who should partner Reid in defence against Palace.
James Collins is certainly the better option in the air, which would come in handy against a Palace side that love to get the ball in the box.
We believe Angelo Ogbonna will be the preferred option however and Bilic looks to recover the understanding in his defence.
Ogbonna was a mainstay in the Hammers lineup last season and the Croatian will be hoping he can strike up a strong partnership with Reid once more.
LB - AARON CRESSWELL
With Aaron Cresswell having recovered from injury, we’re backing Bilic to make a brave call and throw him straight back into the starting line-up.
The 26-year-old is the most solid left-back in the Hammers' squad and is really needed, especially with options so few on the ground after Arthur Masuaku was ruled out before the international break.
CDM - PEDRO OBIANG
One man Hammers fans seem to be favouring at the moment is Pedro Obiang.
The Spaniard came into the West Ham side that drew with Middlesbrough and looked extremely tidy in the middle, winning the ball back and remaining economic with his passing.
Obiang seems to bring the balance and discipline that had been previously lacking with Kouyate and Noble on their own in the middle.
Bilic has to play him or risk the wrath of the Hammers fans should they fail to win again.
CM - CHEIKHOU KOUYATE
This week we’re backing Kouyate to hold his spot in the side, although the Senegalese star needs to pick up his form if he is to hold onto the first-team place.
The centre of West Ham’s midfield has been a problem area so far this season, with Kouyate and Noble being ineffective in attack while also neglecting their defensive duties.
On his day Kouyate can be a powerful box-to-box threat and with Obiang behind him, he will have some license to roam.
CM - MANUEL LANZINI
The big change in West Ham’s lineup comes in the middle of the pitch with Manuel Lanzini replacing captain Mark Noble.
As a diminutive player more known for his playmaking skill than winning the ball back, it is a risky move to play Lanzini in the middle.
But his guile may well be necessary for unlocking a stubborn Palace defence, with Kouyate and Obiang hopefully doing enough defensive work to allow the Argentine to work his magic.
RW - MICHAIL ANTONIO
Michail Antonio has been one of the few bright sparks on West Ham’s season and is currently their greatest scoring threat.
Antonio has five goals this season from the right wing and that’s where he should line up on Saturday.
Bilic tried the Englishman up front against Middlesbrough but he found little success without the ability to make his darting runs into the box.
We expect the Croatian to move him back to the wing and wreak havoc as he has done before.
LW - DIMITRI PAYET
The jewel in the Hammers' crown, Dimitri Payet is the first name on West Ham’s team sheet.
The Frenchman is the chief creative outlet for Bilic, managing three assists despite missing the start of the season.
He has also stepped up his goalscoring, hitting important strikes against Accrington Stanley and Middlesbrough as well as finding the net for France against Bulgaria recently.
Payet is best given the chance to roam into the middle, while Cresswell should offer him support on the left wing.
ST - ASHLEY FLETCHER
With Andy Carroll and Diafra Sakho injured and Simone Zaza misfiring, Bilic may well turn to youth on Saturday.
Ashley Fletcher has been impressing for the development squad and can hardly do any worse than what Zaza has managed so far.
What the 21-year-old lacks in experience he should make up for in fearlessness and the ex-United man will be keen to impress the Hammers fans.
At the very least he would give Pardew a different problem to defend against with the Italian so far proving easy to defend against.
