PREDICTION

Oliver Glasner’s Crystal Palace can now fully focus on the season after a difficult start with the knowledge that star players have remained at Selhurst Park. New club captain Marc Guehi remains with the Eagles alongside other linked away stars Adam Wharton, Eberechi Eze and Jean-Philippe Mateta. They now face a Leicester City side that, under the management of Steve Cooper, do have a smart coach at the helm but the Foxes’ squad is surely not good enough to compete, even with the signing of former Palace man Jordan Ayew making his return to south London. Palace to get their first Premier League win of the season seems very likely here.
