Gianluca Scamacca strikes again. And West Ham continues to win. There is the signing of the blue on the 3-1 inside Fulham of the team of David Moyes, more and more in love with his Italian center forward. Another blue striker, Wilfried Gnonto, continues to be the bench in Leeds, which he loses at the Palace. At 17.30 the big match Arsenal-Liverpool, at 20 Everton-Manchester United closes the Premier League Sunday program.

West Ham-Fulham 3-1

–

Nice ball inside of Paqueta, control and lob for the goal. The signing is by Gianluca Scamacca, who closes his week as a phenomenon with the third goal in as many games, good for West Ham’s third win in a row between the championship and the Conference League. It was not easy to beat Fulham at London Stadium, especially as the Cottagers, even without their most dangerous man, Mitrovic, went first with Pereira after just 5 minutes. However, Moyes’s team, increasingly conquered by his Italian striker, reacted thanks to Scamacca, the greatest danger until at 27 ‘Bowen transformed the equal penalty granted for Pereira’s own foul on Dawson. In the second half Scamacca then thought about making the Hammers fans cheer. For the blue it is the sixth goal of the season, second in the Premier: no Italian has scored as much as he has so far. The victory, rounded off by Antonio’s goal in the 90th minute, brings West Ham to 10 points in the standings in 9 games and confirms that the complicated start to the season is behind us, also thanks to goals from Scamacca. His goal, on the other hand, complicates Fulham’s season: 11 points in 9 games but an open series of two defeats. Until Mitrovic returns …

Crystal Palace-Leeds 2-1

A fine goal from Eze half an hour after the second half gave Crystal Palace the victory that Vieira’s team had been missing in four games. Leeds pays the price, where Wilfried Gnonto continues to be only on the bench: ahead with Struijk on 10 ‘, the guests were joined by Édouard on 24’ and left control of the match to their opponents, ending up with the network that condemns them to the fifth game in a row without a win. In the standings the two teams are now paired at 9 points in 8 games: both had higher expectations.
