EPL: Crystal Palace v West Brom preview


Crystal Palace v West Brom preview

West Bromwich Albion play their final game before heading back to the Championship against in-form Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park on Sunday.


The Baggies relegation to the second tier was confirmed after Southampton's win at Swansea on Tuesday. However, they have staged a resurgence under caretaker boss Darren Moore, winning their last two games and putting together their best unbeaten run (5) of the season.

Brentford manager Dean Smith and Moore are the frontrunners to take over as the boss.

Albion's board are keen to make the appointment as soon as possible after the season finishes, and could name the new man towards the back end of next week.

Few would have foreseen Crystal Palace's rise up the table when assessing the situation after seven games. They have become the first top-flight side in 100 years to survive after losing their opening seven matches.

Joel Ward is a fitness doubt for Crystal Palace after limping off against Stoke last weekend while Jeffrey Schlupp marked his return to fitness with a substitute appearance and could be pushing for a start.

Moore may make changes for this weekend's Premier League clash against Crystal Palace following his side's relegation.

Gareth Barry (knee) and James Morrison (Achilles) remain Moore's only casualties and he admitted he may mix things up against Roy Hodgson's side.
