Crystal Palace will aim to make it three Premier League wins on the spin when they welcome Newcastle United to Selhurst Park on Wednesday.
14th placed Crystal Palace welcome sixth placed Newcastle United to Selhurst Park in a clash between two in-form Premier League teams. Palace’s goal tally of 32 is the fourth worst in the division, but they improved that at the weekend with a thumping 5-2 victory over West Ham. That win came just a week after they stunned Liverpool, defeating the previously unbeaten Reds 1-0 at Anfield. Over a longer period, Palace’s form is much less consistent. They have won, drawn and lost three each of their last nine games in the EPL. Oliver Glasner’s team have scored in all of their last nine home games. A fact that Newcastle will certainly have to respect given how well Palace have performed in their last two matches. The home side are not in any relegation danger, sitting 11 points clear of the drop zone with just five games remaining.
