A game of contrasting styles takes place at Selhurst Park as Crystal Palace face Norwich City. The visitors look fearless and have caught the eye with their attacking ability so far this season, while the same can not be said for the hosts.
Crystal Palace Take On The Fearless Norwich City
Crystal Palace Team News
The Eagles came out of their game with Wolverhampton Wanderers last time out unscathed, and as a result, there are no new reports of injuries.
As a result, it is unlikely that Roy Hodgson will make wholesale changes to his side. The only change could come in the centre of midfield, as that is where they lacked creativity last time out. It could mean that one of Max Meyer or Victor Camarasa come into the team.

The Canaries still have a host of players out injured. However, they have shown that injuries mean very little in their 3-2 victory over Manchester City.
Norwich’s attack is expected to remain unchanged. The quartet of Emiliano Buendia, Marco Stiepermann, Todd Cantwell and Teemu Pukki have won plaudits for the way that they have attacked with pace this season. They have scored nine goals in six games so far this season, the seventh highest in the league.
One change that Daniel Farke could make is in midfield, as Moritz Leitner is now available after injury. The German came on as a substitute last weekend in their defeat to Burnley, replacing Alexander Tettey.
What to Expect From The Game
Crystal Palace may deploy their counter-attacking style at home, as Norwich City often prefer to be on the front foot and are aggressive in attack.
Meanwhile, Roy Hodgson will be hoping that Wilfried Zaha can build on his performance from their 1-1 draw with Wolves. The 26-year-old looked to be back to his former self, and as a result, Palace will be looking to utilise their star man.
Crystal Palace v Norwich City Prediction
Roy Hodgson will be hoping that his side can maintain their unbeaten start at home this season. However, Norwich will pose a real threat with several of their player in form. As a result, it could prove an intriguing fixture at Selhurst Park.
