match preview

Crystal Palace v Leicester City

theguardian 

It has been a curious week for both these clubs Palace were beaten in the Capital One Cup by Newcastle in midweek but excelled themselves by winning at Everton last Sunday, a result that went under the radar because of Leicesters astonishing comeback against Manchester United. Yet both managers will know that it is results in matches like these that will go a long way to defining their seasons. Paul Chronnell
