Crystal Palace enter this match after falling 4-0 away to Liverpool last Wednesday. Crystal Palace sit in 10th and now sit seven points from a European berth. Wilfried Zaha, Christian Benteke and Vicente are all in doubt and will be evaluated closer to game time.
Burnley enter this match on the heels of a 1-0 home win over Watford. Burnley sit in 11th and are also seven points from a European berth. Ashley Barnes has been ruled out while Jay Rodriguez, Robbie Brady, Chris Wood and Johann Gudmundsson are all listed as doubtful and will be evaluated closer to game time.
Crystal Palace have been below average at home this season, where they have just the 13th best home record. Palace’s home matches have been low scoring affairs, with the hosts scoring the fewest goals at home in the league while also allowing the 4th fewest against. Burnley have been respectable away this year where they have the 11th best home record despite scoring the 7th fewest goals and allowing the 6th most goals against. Palace have had the edge when hosting Burnley at Selhurst Park, with the home side winning four of the last six meetings. All signs point to a physical low scoring affair between these two sides, especially with the injury concerns to each team’s attacking stars. Bettors would be wise to wait until lineups are released before placing a bet here. As it stands a draw looks the most probable outcome here although a couple key players returning for either side could be what swings this match.
