Also, look out for Lookman - has had a good start in the King Power team.

Well I think we'll click into 5th gear for this. A good win for Palace. 3-1
I have now sufficient funds to last me the rest of my life. Provided I don't buy anything. |

Some interesting thoughts on this thread. I'll try and add to them. Our last win against Leicester was the 1-4 goalfest at the King Power which saw Guell sacked the following day. Since then it's been 3 defeats and a draw against Rodgers' teams. It's time we got back on the winning trail against them but it won't be easy to do that as we are still learning how to break down teams who are happy for us to have the ball. They have some serious talent, which if it clicks will cause us serious problems. My heart's going for a 2-1 win but my head says we'll get a draw at best. Edited by doombear (01 Oct 2021 11.09am)

It has got to come together soon. Some good performances but only turned that in to a result against Spurs. Hopefully PV takes a few more risks in midfield with Olise and maybe even Hughes getting a start.

We must translate our good play into goals. We had few against Brighton mainly because we persist with a non-productive midfield. The likes of Luka and Kouyate are no good now. Apparently we have a productive midfielder in Hughes and a likely linkman in Eloise so it is now about time to play one or the other or both. Benteke has had his chance over the years and has never lived up to his promise so we must give Edoard a run. Whether we continue with Ayew is a moot point. Like McArthur he works hard but is not a striker in the accepted sense of a No.9. We will struggle with goals unless there is a shake-up.

They normally play 3-4-1-2 with the full backs giving the the width, if we are bold and play Zaha and Olise wide and don't get the to track back, at the start of the match it will give problems for Leicester getting out, i think its time to be bold, depends n line up and attitude

Mark Lawrenson continues to predict us losing every game. He's like that old bloke in the pub that's been around so long everyone's too kind to tell him to pi$$ off, even though he's talking nonsense. In my head I think we'll lose, but in my stubborn heart I think we will win. So let's call it a 0-0 draw.

I am not 100% convinced of Edouard but nor am I of Benteke. The performance against Brighton was massive and should have given us a big win. Leicester are a big medium team and seem to be suffering from something at present but will they hit us? no. I am going for a win but by how many I am not sure. 2-0 but at least a win. We are settling in very nicely and have a few in reserve and we should be moving up the table steadily.
Enjoying getting up later and not having someone who knows better than me (apart from the missus of course). |

Leicester's League form has been unimpressive. Two wins coming from Wolves and Norwich. Whilst we only have one win, we have played better opposition. They lost to both West Ham and Brighton. We managed draws against both. Benteke often seems to do well against Leicester. Vardy, Ndidi, Barnes, and Madison were all rested in midweek. They have struggles at the back whilst we have struggled to score. Although, I never like making predictions, as it seems like tempting fait - but 2-2.

We have to solve goal scoring problem, it's simple if you can't score then you will struggle in any league. If we start with Benteke we will probably lose as it is like playing with 10 men!
