Norwich City are on their best run this season, and will be at home to take on Crystal Palace in a league match, with the focus being on a fourth straight win. Placed 17th, Norwich have 16 points while 13th placed Palace have so far managed 24 points. The hosts go to this game on the back on three straight wins, and in the last five matches they have four wins. In their last three matches they’ve particularly scored crucial wins. Their most recent game ended in a 1-0 away win at Wolverhampton Wanderers, adding to wins over Watford and Everton earlier. The win over Wolves also served as their third clean sheet in five matches and you can sense the confidence is getting back. They’ve only failed to score in one game in their last five, against West Ham United, which ended in a 2-0 loss.

Crystal Palace haven’t lost to Norwich in their last six meetings. However, this match finds them in really unconvincing shape, and nowhere close to the side that beat Norwich 3-0 in the first meeting this season. It hasn’t been a good run for Palace in their recent matches; their only wins in the last five matches were against lower league sides, in the FA Cup. They are coming from a 2-0 win over Hartlepool United, having earlier beaten Millwall 2-1. While Palace have scored in each of their last five matches, they’ve managed just one clean sheet in the run. Twice in the last five matches, they’ve conceded two or more goals. It is their run away from home that will be a great concern for Patrick Vieira though. They have just one away win in the league this season, while in their last 12 away matches, across all competitions, they have just two wins. In three of their last four away league games, Palace have failed to score.
