After suffering a heavy 4-1 loss to Tottenham in the local derby, Crystal Palace will be looking to give fans some cheer when they take on WBA at their Selhurst Park. The Eagles aim to regain their spot in top ten, and they will not have a better chance than this to get back on course. Pacey attacker Wilfried Zaha returns to the starting XI, which is probably the main reason why home win should be considered.
The Baggies, on the other hand, failed to impress in a goalless draw with WBA, and given their poor away record (1-4-8) in the 2020/21 Premier League season, I predict that the visitors are going to return home empty-handed. WBA boss Sam Allardyce should have a full squad to choose from, with Robson-Kanu pushing for a start. In the first half of the season Palace crushed WBA 5-1 at the Hawthorns.
