Crystal Palace Preview – Can Eagles get off the mark?
Crystal Palace have had a difficult start to this new Premier League season as The Eagles have faved Arsenal and Liverpool in quick succession but although they lost 2-0 at home to London rivals, Arsenal, Patrick Vieira’s side will have been boosted by their point away at Anfield last weekend.
Results and form at home have improved though under Vieira as Palace have lost just one of their last seven games at Selhurst Park which includes wins towards the end of last season against Arsenal, Watford and Manchester United.
Aston Villa Preview – Can Villa win back to back?
Despite an opening day of the season 2-0 loss away at Bournemouth which raised more than just a few eyebrows, Aston Villa recorded a bounce back 2-1 home win over Everton last weekend which will also give the visitors a welcome boost ahead of Saturday’s trip to the nation’s capital.
However, the bigger picture paints a disappointing outlook for Steve Gerrard’s team as the visitors have picked up just three wins from their last 13 matches overall and just one win from their last six outings on the road.
