One issue we will have is TP has barely played this season, so in theory he’s not going to have the fitness to play all game every game over this busy period. I was surprised he lasted the whole game against West Ham tbh! However, assuming he does start this, I really want Archer to get a proper run in the team. He is our best finisher and can create a goal and we have precious little of that elsewhere in the team.
Edited that for you
 
Sutton's prediction: I am expecting another close game here, but Palace will probably edge it. 1 - 0

Emma-Jean Thackray's prediction: Palace look a lot more improved recently and they are my local team now I live in London. So I do have a bit of a soft spot for them, plus Southampton fans were not very nice about them getting promoted ahead of us last season. The bitter person in me wants us to go up and wave as we pass them on their way down. 3 - 0

I saw that. I don’t know which saints fans she’s spoken to, they were better than us over the season.
 
I was meant to do include a "favourite player that's played for both clubs" part in the thread, but it's got to be José Fonte hasn't it? Not many players chose to drop down a league to join a club.
Puncheon's goal celebration was iconic though.

I can see us getting a point at least today so I'll include this in my next thread!
