Palace are one of those teams that can run riot
if given too many opportunities ( i.e. 4-1 recent away win at Leicester)
so we are going to have respond big time and put in the sort of performance
we did against Spurs rather than the one we put in against Newcastle.

I'd be happy with a draw from this one but a win would obviously be
massive and possibly assure we stay up especially if Cardiff and Southampton
lose.

Fingers crossed.

Really can't agree with that on any count. Not must win today for us; Brighton might not beat Hudds (Hudds have nothing to lose...no pressure for them and a bit of confidence); Wolves are more likely to bounce back and neat Cardiff; won't need anywhere near 40 points - 36 will be enough, esp if we beat Cardiff.

They NEED to respond... my worry is how tired they looked at Newcastle. If that tiredness is still in their legs, then I think we all know that palace and their forward players can hurt us in lots of ways.

I’d take a point, and we have shown that we are capable of all three, but equally capable of getting done over.

....I'd take a point now, too, bobinho. I thought 4 points from the Spurs/Newcastle/Palace games would be a decent return. I think we might get that but totally not in the way I thought......

Certainly a really bad result were we to lose! seems if Bardsley & Westwood are at it, the whole team follow suit. I think we will scrape it 2-1. let`s hope the legs and heads have recovered from the huge spurs` performance.

37 points will be safe.

Big plus for us is the loss of their only class centre back, Sakho, not just for today but probably the season.

As much as it messed up people’s arrangments the Newcastle game being brought forward may have been a blessing tbh.

It’s given us that extra day recovery as Palace played on the Wednesday

I'd certainly hope not.

We went back to performances pre Christmas on Tuesday , let's hope we get back to the 2019 type displays today.
