    Crystal Palace v Leeds Utd
    Saturday 7th [email protected]| Selhurst Park

    Leeds will still be licking their wounds, following the 4-1 mauling at the hands of the Foxes on Monday night as they prepare for their trip to England's capital on Saturday afternoon.

    Nobody needs to remind us what a poor record we have for wining games in London. Let's hope the ban on fans breaks the jinx.

    It's a very interesting looking fixture on paper, with two respected veteran Managers going head to head

    Leeds will be without record signing Rodrigo, who tested positive for covid 19 earlier in the week. The 29yo missed the home defeat against Leicester City on Monday due to going into self isolation having come into contact with a family member who had caught the deadly virus. Rodrigo will be back after the International break, fit to face Arsenal.

    Phillips (Shoulder), Llorente (hamstring) join long term absentee Forshaw on the treatment table.

    Raphinha will face a late fitness test. The Brazilian winger is struggling with an ankle injury.

    Crystal Palace will be without captain Luka Milivojevic for three matches after losing his appeal (yesterday) against his red card at Wolves.

    Can’t help feel it is one we need to win.

    Lose and suddenly it’s one win in three, win and we can go into the international break knowing it’s come at a good time with our injury situation

    To be honest guys it’s been bit of a shy*e week and it all started with the loss to Leicester so I’m hoping Bielsa pulls his finger out and redeems my week
    Not asking a lot just a 2-0 leeds win would do

    Need to set off nice and solid, compact and work as a unit first 15 mins or so, Ayling will have to be at his best to keep Zaha quiet, Bamford to give the ex Chelsea Cahill the run around, not going to be easy, no game is in this league.
    On a parting note OGS must stay at the Salford Yanks :1980_boogie_down:

    It was not a disgrace to be beaten by Leicester on that form they are one of the top three teams in the country. If we play as we have been playing we should give Palace a test.

    Stats from 3 weeks ago, Palace did go ahead in the 19th minute so maybe they allowed Brighton to play. Finished 1-1, but hoping it's not one of them type days for us against them.
