Crystal Palace current form

Palace have won five out of their last six games and in those six games they have scored 15 goals.

One of those victories came against Man Utd and it was an impressive one, too, as they demolished the Red Devils 4-0.

In their last three games, they have drawn against Chelsea, lost against Brighton and drawn against Liverpool.

Sam Johnstone, Rob Holding, Cheick Doucoure, Matheus Franca, and Will Hughes are all definitely out, but Glasner hopes to have Jefferson Lerma back available.
