Crystal Palace News and Form

Palace fought back from a 2-0 deficit at Arsenal last weekend to pick up 2-2 draw. They are having a better-than-expected season really as they are W4 D3 L3 in the campaign. Their home record is W2 D2 L1 and the only team to have visited Selhurst Park and get a win was Manchester City. Overall, home and away, Palace have lost just one of their last five games (W2 D2).

It is only the four home goals which Palace have managed to score this season, but they have been right on point defensively. They have picked up three clean sheets in five at Selhurst Park, and have conceded only three home goals in that run. No game at Selhurst Park this season has made it over 2.5 goals. Will the Eagles be able to keep the score down in this one, against a Leicester side who are going so well in the attack?

Palace are seven points better off than they were at this stage of last season’s campaign. Three of the four wins which they have recorded in the league this season have been by a one-goal margin. They have been level at the time break in three of their five home games, scoring three of their four home goals in the second half of fixtures. Palace have only lost one of their last seven league home games.

Leicester News and Form

Leicester were the talk of the town last Friday as they claimed a 9-0 win at Southampton. Ayoze Perez and Jamie Vardy both netted hat tricks in the game. That is back to back league wins for them now and they have won four of their last five played. It’s been some great form for them and they look full of confidence. The Foxes are W2 D1 L2 out on the road.

The goals have been flying around from them this season. Leicester have scored in each of their last five games, and have rattled off at least two goals in six of their last eight played. They have tallied up 17 in their last four games alone. The win at Southampton snapped a run of back to back away defeats that Leciester had suffered.

Those were in tough games against Man Utd and Liverpool. The Foxes average 2.6 goals per away game this season. Just as a nod to how well they are going to attack, they have outscored Liverpool and Chelsea this season, with only Man City having produced more. Despite their great success this season, Leicester have only opened the scoring in four of their league games.

Who will win – Crystal Palace vs Leicester Predictions

This is a tough game to call because Crystal Palace run a tight ship defensively at Selhurst Park. Leicester are in fine form at the moment, but they may find themselves frustrated by a very dogged Eagles side. Draw.
