Zaha aiming for strong finish to the season against West Brom

Crystal Palace superstar Wilfried Zaha is preparing for a strong finish to his excellent 2017/18 season.

The Eagles close their campaign out by hosting West Bromwich Albion.

Labelled prime relegation candidates at the beginning of the season, the arrival of Roy Hodgson in September has stabilised the club and seen a steady up-turn in form that has now guaranteed Premier League football will be played at Selhurst Park next season.

The Baggies meanwhile are staring down the barrel of relegation to the Championship, despite an astonishing run of results that has seen interim-manager Darren Moore be named manager of the month for April.

Despite the context, one man is hoping to send the Palace fans away for the summer in a good mood. Wilfried Zaha has kept the South Londoners up almost by himself, scoring eight critical goals in the bid for survival.

Speaking to the South London Press, Zaha said of Sunday’s match:

Yeah definitely I’m looking forward to it because, obviously, the season has been hard for us,

The start we had (this season) wasn’t easy but it’s nice to finally get what we deserve with the performances we’ve put in. It would be nice to put a show on for the fans on Sunday.

The Ivory Coast international will be much-sought after during the summer, and Palace fans will be hoping the forward chooses to commit his future to the club.
