I believe that gives us flexibility in both defence and attack which ever is needed.

I think we need to keep the back 5 as the last game. Bernardo is the best LB we have and quicker than Bong, it'll be a test for him to deal with Zaha but hopefully he'll have help from March. I expect March to get the nod just because he plays the defensive winger very well. Tough on Ali J though.

If CH goes ultra defensive then could see Kayal coming in for Bissouma.
However we shouldn't play into Palace hands by sitting back and trying to hit them on the break. Be interesting if he still sticks with the 4-3-3 for this game.

Up front I'll be surprised if it's Andone, he's done great but Murray likes to score against ex-teams so wouldn't be surprised to see him play.

Ryan

Montoya
Dunk
Duffy
Bernardo

Stephens
Propper
Bissouma/Kayal

Knockeart
Murray
March

Zaha plays on the left (unless he's shifted position since Batshuyai came in).

I know it’s obvious but Andone has to start. Palace’s centre backs are extremely slow and will be scared of Andone after the goal he scored at the Amex. Playing him will mean they have to sit a lot deeper which hopefully mean we won’t be under the cosh so much from the start.

This is the right team, I agree (except that March and Jahanbaksh are on the wrong wings).

Kayal (yes, we all know you hate the poor man) will obviously be on the bench, in place of one of the four forwards you've listed.

Agreed. March to hopefully look after Sarah and Ali J just deserves his chance again

So just one change from the Huddersfield game with Andone replacing Murray. The formation may well be 433 with the same team though.
