THE LOWDOWN

LEEDS UTD

  • Things are looking brighter now for Leeds with their come-from-behind victory over Nottingham Forest on Tuesday seeing Javi Gracia’s side put a couple of points between themselves and the relegation zone.
  • There is no fresh injury news in the Leeds camp which means the same four players remain sidelined, while Gracia will be tempted to opt for a unchanged line-up following the win against Forest.

CRYSTAL PALACE

  • Roy Hodgson won his first game since returning to the Crystal Palace hot seat with an injury-time Jean-Philippe Mateta winner seeing the Eagles defeat struggling Leicester.
  • Vicente Guaita and Wilfried Zaha are both unavailable for the trip north due to recent setbacks and they join Chris Richards and the perennially unavailable Nathan Ferguson on the sidelines.

THE PREDICTION

Just one points separates these two sides in the table so an evenly-matched contest is expected here. Crystal Palace’s away form has really let them down lately with just one point gained from their last six Premier League away days, but the re-appointed Roy Hodgson is bound to sure them up in defence. With Wilfried Zaha absent through injury for the hosts, Palace will prioritise defensive stability here and that could lead to a game in short on chances. Backing against both teams scoring is the suggestion.

TIP: BOTH TEAMS TO SCORE – NO
