Our prediction for this Premier League match:
Crystal Palace will look to recover from a 4-1 loss to Arsenal when they host Leicester City to their Selhurst Park on Saturday afternoon. The Eagles are on a four-game losing run, but they are surely capable of matching the Foxes on home soil. Jordan Ayew is back from international duty, while Nathan Ferguson remains in the treatment room. First-choice goalkeeper Vicente Guaita faces race against the clock to be fit for the match.
Meanwhile, the visitors are desperate to escape the danger zone. Since both sides are likely to adopt an attack-minded approach in Saturday’s clash, we believe that there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. All Justin, Bertrand, Tielemans, and Braybrooke miss out with injuries, while both Evans and Kristiansen are major doubts. In their last meeting in London the two teams played out a 2-2 draw.
