Read Crystal Palace’s verdict
Lawrenson may be famous for predicting Liverpool to win every game, and for unreliable predictions, but he has a point here.

Christian Benteke has an awful scoring record for Palace, and there are simply no other options in the side.
The Eagles do need to find some goals from somewhere.
