A late show at Selhurst Park last weekend prevented Roy Hodgson’s men from progressing further up the league table. With Jota’s last minute sickener frustrating Roy and Palace supporters alike, 3 points would be welcome against Daniel Farke’s newly promoted Norwich side.
For Norwich, it was a case of after the lord mayor’s show; a loss away at Burnley must have come as a harsh reality check for Farke’s men, having just upset Pep Guardiola’s behemoth the previous game.
On the injury front, Roy Hodgson has highlighted Mamadou Sakho as a potential doubt, but we still expect him to start. Connor Wickham has trained all week, but is unlikely to feature.
Norwich have some key players missing with Max Aarons still sidelined, and Tim Krul likely to miss the game. This bodes well for Palace who will be hoping to capitalise on Norwich’s defensive frailties.
Here is our predicted lineup for Palace ahead of Saturday’s game:
