Just don’t lose, in fact I see no reason why we can’t go the rest of the season unbeaten when you look who we play.

On paper, you may well be right BUT you are forgetting one very important factor - we are Palace and we know how to lose games we should win.

I cant, but I'm sure someone can remember the last time we won 3 league games in a row? Suspect it was a while ago.

You'd have to fancy us given the last 2. Southampton will need to go for it, but after watching videos of our Leeds win they will be nervy about throwing too much forward.

I'd sure they will also have taken note of Leeds' first half performance, and aim to replicate.

1-3 Palace

This fixture is so critical for Saints, they will throw everything at it and have a good squad despite their position.

So I think home win but if we are solid and organised we have the flair players to change that.

We will have to be lucky with the vile VAR.

I think Johnston will start and the most obvious thing is to prepare for JWP.

I think take a player out of the wall and a spare attacker and put them on the goal-line, and ensure a clear line of vision.


It's just a thought, but we have our own JWP, Scott Banks, I would personally have him on the bench as a specialist sub.

Ideas, you never know.

This is a very fair summary. On balance I think a home win more likely, but you never know! This is a Southampton view :

1-3 Palace


To be exact on 7th March 2020 prior to the Covid shut down. We had beaten Newcastle at home Brighton away (Ayew) and Watford at home (all 1-0 playing the old Royball). We won our first game after the restart behind closed doors against Bournemouth 2-0 before promptly losing SEVEN in a row before a last day draw at home to Spurs.

(I'm one of these sad people who's been keeping records in recent years)

This is Palace. Southampton are very often a thorn in our side, too.

Wouldn't be surprised if we lost.

My prediction is that there will be rotational fouling on Eze and Olise, led by rat face. Ref will not pick up on it

Very shrewd - albeit depressing.

I cannot imagine for one moment wanting anything to do with this vile club, my memory of absolutely hating them goes back to our team of the eighties

One I never hear anyone talk about is 2005. Seconds away from survival and we let Danny Higginbotham score to effectively relegate us along with them. Absolute sickener

Anyway, I fancy us to keep our form going but would take a draw.

Love to see Hughes starting this game. Bound to be a right battle. Massive pressure game for them. What encouraged me about the Leeds performance was how we just got better once we went behind.

Was it Ventola who scored for us that day too (looked at one point to be keeping us up)? If only he'd been fit the rest of the season!

 


Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!!

Ventola did score in that game.I think he was introduced into the fray from the bench.

Good point, me too, maybe if they go down. Assuming Wilf stays, they could share a room on away trips
