We mentioned Jason Puncheon has been talked of as a future England international. The midfielder has a good chance for Crystal Palace from the edge of the penalty area but can only drag his shot wide of the post.

Villa do manage to send a cross towards Rudy Gestede and the striker goes for the hugely optimistic overhead kick. And completely misses the ball. Don't worry, Rudy. We've all tried it. And failed.

A lively start from both sides as Aston Villa's Gabriel Agbonlahor flicks on to Jack Grealish, who plays in Rudy Gestede but the striker, making his first start for the club, sees his effort blocked by Delaney.

Aston Villa in bright yellow get us under way. It is a very warm day in south London and we will have a heat break during the match. Pape Souare makes a burst down the left wing but the cross is disappointing and goes out for a goal kick.

Things might be a bit feisty today if this stat is anything to go by. Our referee today is Keith Stroud. He may be busy.

The players are out on the pitch as the Palace anthem 'Glad all over' blares out around the ground. As always, the home fans are in great voice and it is a wonderful atmosphere inside Selhurst Park.

It might not be the biggest stadium in the Premier League, but there are few better atmospheres.

Aston Villa midfielder Gary Gardner, who misses out today through injury, writes on Twitter.

Although not playing today, it has been a good week for the 23-year-old as on Friday he agreed a new three-year contract with Villa.

And this is how they stand in the Premier League. Palace start the match seventh in the table, with Aston Villa in 10th.

We have already had one match in the Premier League and it ended goalless at Old Trafford as Manchester United were held by Newcastle United.

  This is how we expect them to line up at Selhurst Park.  

Crystal Palace's  Bakary Sako makes his debut for the Eagles after moving from Wolves on a free transfer in the summer, with Glenn Murray also starting. Connor Wickham is not in the 18 and Yannick Bolasie does not feature after a family bereavement.

Aston Villa's  Jack Grealish makes his first appearance of the season after recovering from a hamstring injury, while Carlos Sanchez and Rudy Gestede also start as Tim Sherwood makes three changes.

Crystal Palace:  McCarthy, Ward, Delaney, Dann, Souare, McArthur, Cabaye, Zaha, Puncheon, Sako, Murray.

Subs: Hennessey, Bamford, Lee, Jedinak, Gayle, Mutch, Kelly.

Aston Villa:  Guzan, Bacuna, Richards, Clark, Amavi, Sanchez, Gueye, Westwood, Grealish, Gestede, Agbonlahor.

Subs: Baker, Sinclair, Veretout, Ayew, Hutton, Traore, Bunn.

Crystal Palace and Aston Villa have had spookily similar starts to the 2015-16 campaign. But can one of them recover from their disappointment last week and record their second win of the season today?
