Crystal Palace vs Brentford – Predicted lineup and team news

Crystal Palace return to Selhurst Park today, still buzzing from one of their great cup victories.

Indeed, the Eagles put in a stunning performance on Wednesday, beating Liverpool 3-0 at Anfield in the Carabao Cup. Now, manager Oliver Glasner will demand that same level of performance back in the league.

The team’s home form has certainly been formidable. In fact, Palace are unbeaten in their last ten league games at Selhurst Park. However, they face a Brentford side that they have historically struggled against. Palace have won just one of their eight Premier League meetings with the Bees. Therefore, breaking that poor run will be key to climbing the table.

Oliver Glasner is expected to revert to his strongest available lineup for today’s match. Indeed, the manager made several changes for the impressive midweek cup win. Consequently, key players who were rested, like striker Jean-Philippe Mateta, are set to return to the starting XI.

However, the squad must cope with new absences. Specifically, both Adam Wharton and Eddie Nketiah are out due to illness and a muscle injury, respectively. They join long-term absentees Cheick Doucouré and Chadi Riad on the sidelines. In more positive news, defender Chris Richards is fit again. He has recovered from a calf issue and is available for selection.
