THE LOWDOWN
CRYSTAL PALACE
- Most likely still smarting from their FA Cup semi-final loss to Chelsea at Wembley, Crystal Palace were beaten again upon their return to Premier League action, losing 1-0 to Newcastle at St. James’ Park and will be glad for home advantage here against Leeds Utd.
- Attacker Michael Olise was forced to be withdrawn from that match at Newcastle as he "wasn’t feeling 100%" and will be assessed before this match, while Luka Milivojevic will return to team training on Saturday.
LEEDS UTD
- Leeds Utd are in no way safe yet from relegation with the gap between themselves and 18th-placed currently at just five points despite them having picked up ten points from the last 12 available to them.
- Striker Patrick Bamford remains out for the Whites and is joined on the treatment table by Junior Firpo, Jamie Shackleton, Tyler Roberts and Adam Forshaw, who picked up a knee injury recently.

THE PREDICTION
Whilst Leeds Utd’s excellent form means they travel to Selhurst Park with confidence that they can pick up what would be a massive three points for them, Crystal Palace are likely to put together a much improvement performance than what they showed against Newcastle in their first home match since the FA Cup semi-final. Both these two sides should prove well-matched an intriguing affair is in prospect. It would be no surprise if the two were not to be separated, so considering backing the draw.
Tip: DRAW
