Crystal Palace form and stats

5-7-4 (win-draw-lost) are the Premier League numbers at home for Crystal Palace so far this season. When Crystal Palace hosts teams that live in the bottom of the table (like Norwich City, Everton, Aston Villa, Crystal Palace, Watford and Burnley), they have won 2 of 4 matches!

The supporters are hoping that Palace will strike back in this fixture, putting things right after the 0-1 away loss in the match against Newcastle United (placed 11th). The gifted forward Édouard bettered all others in that game and managed a match rating of 7.43 out of 10. Édouard hit one key pass.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Crystal Palace have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found six games) they have won two times, drawn two and lost two.

The Palace fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 25 goals in 16 league matches. 17 goals have been conceded. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 1 of these goals has been conceded in their last three home matches.

Leeds United form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Leeds United so far with only 16 points returning home. The records show 4-4-8 (win-draw-lose). Leeds United has recorded two wins in a row in their away matches and hold legitimate hopes of a third one.

Leeds United play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 3-0 victory visiting Watford (placed 19th). Which player has scored three games in a row for the away team? The correct answer is Harrison and that is quite the accomplishment! Cooper was the top performer of the team in that game with a match score of 7.85. The defender Cooper won 10 of 11 duels.

A draw for Leeds United before that, at their own venue hosting Southampton (1-1).

We have checked recent matches where Leeds have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those nine games were three victories, one draw and five defeats.

Leeds United have scored 20 goals on their travels this season, from 16 away games in the league. The Leeds United manager Marsch has some worries about the defense as 38 goals have been conceded in these travels. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 3 of these goals has been conceded in their last three away matches. When Leeds United is visiting a side on the bottom half, 4 of 5 matches have ended with three or more goals. These are matches against Norwich City, Leeds United, Everton, Aston Villa, Watford and Burnley.
