ON THE evidence of the past two performances at the London Stadium, West Ham appear set on securing their Premier League survival one point at a time.

The 1-1 draw with Crystal Palace on Tuesday night was the second home game in a row that David Moyes’s team had come back after going behind, only to go on and grind out a draw. Indeed, there were many similarities between this and the previous game against Bournemouth.
