Crystal Palace Preview: Bottom three

Crystal Palace twice led against Aston Villa last weekend but were pegged back on both occasions and ultimately had to settle for a point in a 2-2 draw at Villa Park, and they have still picked up just the one victory in the Premier League this season.

The Eagles are 19th in the table with only promoted side Southampton below them, and so manager Oliver Glasner will be really feeling the heat right now as he seeks to turn things around at Selhurst Park.

Newcastle Preview: False dawn?

Just when it looked like Newcastle had turned a corner with recent wins over Arsenal and Nottingham Forest in the Premier League, they put in a limp display in a 0-2 defeat to strugglers West Ham on Monday, leaving Magpies fans scratching their heads as to what is going on at the club.

Having said that, given the congested nature of the table right now, Eddie Howe's side are still within touching distance of the upper echelons of the table and a return to winnings ways could see them shoot up the standings, depending on other results of course.

Crystal Palace vs Newcastle Prediction

After Steve Cooper was sacked as Leicester boss earlier in the week, many are predicting that Glasner could be the next Premier League manager to be given his marching orders, and his prospects would look bleak if Palace were to lose at home to Newcastle here.

Such an outcome is a difficult one to predict though, as Newcastle have been unpredictable lately and are clearly lacking consistency in their performance levels. At a push, we'd consider backing the visitors in the draw no bet market, but this could be a fixture best avoided in the betting markets altogether.
