Predicted XI – Southampton (A)

Crystal Palace made four wins in a row as they shocked Premier League leaders Chelsea at Stamford Bridge last weekend.

Despite falling behind early on, the Eagles rallied and a quickfire double from Wilfried Zaha and Christian Benteke put Allardyce’s side into the lead, a lead which they hung onto for the rest of the match.

That win for Palace puts them four points outside of the relegation zone with a game in hand on 18th placed Hull, a much more attractive position than the one they were in just 6 weeks ago.

Next up for the Eagles is a trip to the south coast to take on Southampton who are the prime meridian in the Premier League this season, sitting in 10th place but just three points ahead of Palace.

With a few injuries to deal with, how will Allardyce’s side line-up? Here is our predicted XI.
