Eagles Know One Way To Win
In the last three months Palace have taken 13 points from a possible 15 against bottom half clubs at Selhurst Park
If you think Crystal Palace are going to overcome West Brom this weekend then you’d be well advised to pass up the 8/5 (BetVictor) on offer for any home win and instead take on a correct scoreline prediction.
The reason for this is that when the Eagles do take three points it’s usually by the same scoreline. Since Tony Pulis was appointed manager, Palace have claimed five of their six league victories by a 1-0 margin - that’s a best price 13/2 shot with WilliamHill on Saturday. The great news about taking this bet with Hills is that you get your money back if the game ends 0-0 - one of the most likely alternatives.
The Baggies have only won one of their last 14 in the top flight as they have slid right into the thick of the relegation battle. But they have drawn seven times in that run and six of the other fixtures have been decided by a one-goal margin. So this is almost certain to be a closely fought encounter. On form, the hosts could sneak it and provide us with a decent pay-out.
