THE PREDICTION

Another week, another loss for Sheffield Utd. The Blades are still yet to find a win so far this season and they are unlikely to find it against Crystal Palace away, although Palace have been rather hit-and-miss this season and, currently slumped in 15th, are more often a miss than a hit. The Eagles haven’t necessarily played too bad though. Their last game against Leicester was a commendable 1-1 draw and if their main man Zaha turns up on the day, a home win can be expected.
