Match Preview: Palace to Mute Swans?

Rich Foster's alternate Match Previews continue as he looks ahead to Sunday's game. Here's the first part, if you want to read more, the link is at the end: 1 BLACK SWANS Back in September Palace met Swansea at Selhurst and we were so comprehensively outplayed that the 0-2 score line flattered us. So dominant were The Swans that I remember the sizeable groan of disappointment amongst the Palace fans when four added minutes was displayed on the board as the only thing that could have happened was another Swansea goal or two. The gulf in class was unbridgeable and if someone had said that firstly we would be anywhere near Swansea in the Premier League table and secondly that Laudrup would no longer be manager the men in white coats would have been summoned immediately. But bizarrely there are only two points separating the teams and Michael, like Holloway, ended up hurtling down the Premier League Laundry chute.

Yes, it was really a lesson in the basics. Funny how things change tho'. I reckon the Eagles can ravage the Swans this time as 1) a tiring and disappointing Eufa trip and 2) Uncertainty at management level. Add Palace's new found belief and some great signings, well things do look promising this time out. I expect a 2-0 result to Palace and an easy match. But Palace cannot afford to play the cat and mouse nonsense as they did v Manure. This time its all out for the throat.

Our form has been good since then, and we're a difficult team to break down and beat. Swansea's form has slumped, and its probably the first time in a long time that we've got a chance of getting something from a Swansea game. If we can win there, we can really set a decent challange to the other 'relegation rivals' and put pressure on them.

A good article. Lets hope we offer some more attacking intent with ince in the hole. having said that id like Murray to stay up top and think Chamakh could fill the void on the right of a four man midfield. Bolasie too inconsistent and dosent exploit any advantage he creates Edited by maxipalace (28 Feb 2014 9.57pm)

Was the game due to be on sky sports as I swear I looked at it on the planner and pressed the record button for it, only to look today and find out the Villa Norwich game is on. Am I losing the plot?
