Crystal Palace, Recent FormCrystal Palace will certainly have been pleased to secure 3 points from their most recent encounter, which saw them run out 1-0 winners in their away fixture against Manchester United. They achieved 23% possession in that match and had 8 strikes at goal, with 2 hitting the target, up against Manchester United's tally of 19 efforts at goal, 4 of which were on target.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 6 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 7 and seen valuable points lost. They have only kept 2 clean sheets in their last 6 home games.
They've been performing well at Selhurst Park of late, with an unbeaten record of 5 games from 6, 3 of which were wins.
Having scored 4 goals in his last 6 league games for Crystal Palace, Odsonne Édouard will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
Nottingham Forest, Recent FormNottingham Forest had to make do with a share of the points in their last match, with a 1-1 draw against Brentford. In that game they had 41% possession and managed 6 attempts on goal, with 1 on target, compared to Brentford who had 18 attempts and 5 on target.
While they have shown an appetite for goals over the last 6 matches, clocking up 7, they have not had it all their own way at the back and have given away 8 goals and some valuable points in the process. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
They've had a poor run of form on the road recently, losing 3 of their last 6 away games and managing only 1 win.
Taiwo Awoniyi will be hoping to create problems for Crystal Palace in this one, having scored 5 goals in his last 6 outings on the road for Nottingham Forest.
Despite both teams hitting the net in their previous encounter, the match ended in a 1-1 draw.
In the past 6 away matches at Palace in the league, The Reds have consistently found the net, scoring at least 1 goal in each of those encounters.
This fixture has produced a draw on the last 2 occasions that these 2 sides have met at Selhurst Park in the league, but Forest will hold a slight psychological advantage having been unbeaten there in their last 6 visits.
Palace manager Roy Hodgson has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Naouirou Ahamada (Ankle), Odsonne Édouard (Hamstring), Nathan Ferguson (Muscle), Matheus França (Unknown), Jefferson Lerma (Hamstring), Michael Olise (Hamstring) and James Tomkins (Unknown) are all currently out of contention for this game.
