Roy Hodgson has named Gary Cahill as captain for Crystal Palace's clash with West Ham United, with James McCarthy chosen to replace the suspended Luka Milivojevic in midfield.
Mirroring his choice as England manager in October 2015, Hodgson has selected the experienced centre-back to lead the team out in east London this evening after starting him in the Eagles' last five league games.
In place of Milivojevic, Hodgson has fielded another summer signing in McCarthy - with the 28-year-old securing his first league start since the 2017/18 season.
Other than the midfield swap, Hodgson has named the same XI which overcame Norwich City 2-0 last Saturday.
