Palace are in free fall. They've lost eight of their last 11 games in all competitions and scored just four home league goals.

It could get a lot worse before it improves. Talisman Wilfried Zaha is banned and they traditionally struggle without him. Their most consistent defender James Tomkins is suspended too. Scott Dann is ready for a comeback after nearly 12 months out but it's a big risk to pitch him in against a side who've scored in their last nine away league games.

Manchester City, Chelsea and Liverpool are just around the corner for The Eagles and unless they buy a regular scorer in January, they'll be in big trouble.

Leicester also face Manchester City and Chelsea after this game but they've been in decent form and can get something here.

Wilfried Zaha and Andros Townsend should score more goals.

Townsend has never scored more than four goals in a Premier League season, which is not good enough for someone who plays up there.

Crystal Palace make three changes from the side beaten by West Ham last time out.

Spanish keeper Vicente Guaita makes his league debut, with Wayne Hennessey out, while Martin Kelly and Jordan Ayew replace the suspended James Tomkins and Wilfried Zaha respectively.

Crystal Palace XI: Guaita, Kelly, Sakho, Wan-Bissaka, Van Aanholt, Meyer, Milivojevic, McArthur, Kouyate, Townsend, Ayew.

Subs: Speroni, Ward, Dann, Sorloth, Schlupp, Wickham, Puncheon.

Bad news for Palace, they are without suspended winger Wilfried Zaha today.

The Eagles have lost their past 13 Premier League matches without him in the team and failed to score in 11 of those.

Will the curse continue?

Full team news to follow...

Crystal Palace come into this one with only two wins and 10 defeats in their past 15 league fixtures.

The hosts are just two points above the relegation zone.

Leicester meanwhile are on a mixed run - just one win in five, but also just one defeat, which came last time out against Spurs.
