There will be a bit of pressure on Oliver Glasner this weekend, as Crystal Palace are yet to reach the same level as they promised at the back end of the previous campaign.
The Eagles have dropped to 16th in the standings after failing to win in their opening three matches this term, but positives can be taken from their previous outing before the international break when picking up a point at Stamford Bridge.
The Eagles replied well after going a goal behind against Chelsea, and they were good value for a point following Eberechi Eze’s goal in the second period. While that performance showcased some of the team’s potential, securing their first win of the season remains the primary objective.
Leicester travel to Selhurst Park this weekend, still searching for their first league win since returning to the top-flight. The Foxes started the season with an impressive home display against Tottenham, but they have failed to kick on since that opening day point after losing each of their last two. Despite that, Steve Cooper’s side remain a place above the Eagles in the current league standings.
Leicester suffered a second straight defeat before the international break, falling to a 2-1 loss at the King Power Stadium against Aston Villa.
There are clear concerns in the attacking areas that must be addressed this weekend, and it could be challenging to overlook that they have netted just three times this term before making a Crystal Palace vs. Leicester prediction.
Bet herePalace have won just once in their last eight league matches against the Foxes, but that win did come in the previous encounter between the sides at Selhurst Park. This will be a golden opportunity for the Eagles to land a first win of the campaign, and they should have too much in the final third for their East Midlands rivals.
Eberechi Eze has been at the heart of everything positive that the Eagles have done this season. The England international netted in the recent draw against Chelsea, and he could be the key man in the final third once again as Palace look to turn their season around in Saturday’s clash against Leicester.
