West Ham United surged into the top four of the English Premier League (EPL) on Tuesday after a 3-2 win at Crystal Palace.

Tomas Soucek scored twice and Craig Dawson got the other as David Moyes’ side came from an early goal down to record their fourth consecutive Premier League victory.

The win lifted them one point above champions Liverpool, who play at Tottenham on Thursday.

Leeds United remain 12th after a 2-1 win at relegation-threatened Newcastle United, with Jack Harrison grabbing the winner just after the hour mark.

Manchester City went top after winning massively at second-bottom West Brom while Southampton hosted Arsenal in the night’s other match.
