THE PREDICTION

Crystal Palace fell to a thumping 4-1 defeat away at Spurs last time out, however the Eagles did have reason to smile as they welcomed attacking talisman Wilfried Zaha back onto the pitch, after he came off the bench following a period out with injury. Zaha is expected to start at home to West Brom, who sit 19th in the table and eight points adrift of Brighton in 17th. Despite the Baggies needing victory, they will still set up cautiously with the view of keeping Zaha quiet and Palace may have to show patience in breaking them down. The last six games involving West Brom in the Premier League have seen under 2.5 goals scored and regardless of the final result, it would be a surprise if the same outcome wasn’t to occur in this match.
