Crystal Palace vs Burnley

Crystal Palace enters this match in mixed form, managing just one win in their last five Premier League outings. The Eagles drew 1-1 away at Nottingham Forest in their most recent league fixture, showing resilience but lacking the cutting edge needed. Their home record of two wins, six draws and four losses reflects their struggles at Selhurst Park this season. Palace has scored 11 goals and conceded 15 at home, highlighting defensive vulnerabilities. Key absences include striker Eddie Nketiah (thigh injury) and midfielder Daichi Kamada (hamstring), which could impact their attacking threat. However, they've shown fighting spirit in recent matches and will be desperate for points to climb away from the relegation zone. Watch for Eberechi Eze to provide creativity in the final third.

Burnley arrives at Selhurst Park in dire form, suffering a heavy 3-0 defeat at Sunderland in their last Premier League match. The Clarets have managed just one win in 12 away fixtures this season, scoring only five goals on the road - a woeful attacking record. Their recent form shows three losses in five matches, with only a 2-2 draw against Tottenham providing any positives. Burnley's away defensive record is equally concerning, conceding 25 goals in 12 matches. Missing key players including striker Zeki Amdouni (knee injury) and midfielder Josh Cullen (knee injury) severely weakens their already limited options. The Clarets desperately need points to avoid relegation but their away form suggests they'll struggle to get anything from this London trip. Lyle Foster will be crucial if he starts up front.
