The unsuccessful play of the three outsiders makes the life of Crystal Palace calmer. The Eagles do not show outstanding results, but they are still at a solid 14-point distance from the relegation zone. Crystal Palace manages to win where possible and also spoils the mood of the top clubs from time to time. In five previous Premier League games Crystal Palace beat Wolverhampton (1:0) and Newcastle (2:1), Manchester City (0:4), West Ham (2:3) and Leeds (0:2). These results allow Roy Hodgson’s team to remain in 13th place. However, it will be more difficult for Crystal Palace to play in this meeting. The Eagles will enter the field without the main striking force in the attack Wilfrid Zaa. He has scored a third of all the team’s goals this season, while Crystal Palace have lost 17 of their 19 previous matches in which Wilfrid did not play. At Selhurst Park Crystal Palace have earned seven points in five previous Premier League games. The Eagles beat Sheffield United (2:0) and Wolverhampton (1:0), drew with Leicester (1:1) and lost to Liverpool (0:7) and West Ham (2:3). In addition to Wilfrid Zaah, the Glaziers’ infirmary includes Jeffrey Schlupp, James Tomkins, Mamadou Sako, Connor Wickham, Nathan Ferguson and Wayne Hennessy.
Juventus also does not have outstanding success in the league. Andrea Pirlo’s team is not the main contender for the scudetto. By the start of the 22nd round the old lady is on the third line in the table with 42 points in the asset. The leader Milan are seven points ahead, having five points more than the second Inter, but the Italian champion still has a match in reserve. In the last round Juventus displaced Roma from third place, beating the Romans with a score of 2:0 at home. Thus, the “old lady” won the third victory in a row in the championship without conceding a single goal in these matches. Also, Juventus made it to the Italian Cup final. After a 2:1 victory over Inter at a party, Juve kept the desired goalless draw at home in the return leg. More football prediction can be obtained from the link provided.
