Matthew Gregg

Matthew Gregg looks set to take place between the sticks when the Eagles face Burnley at Turf Moor on Saturday. First choice keeper Aleksanders Kolinko is suspended for this game after being sent off against Liverpool in the Worthington Cup semi-final.

The 22-year-old only played two games in the first team this season, against Cardiff City in the Worthington Cup, before he lost his place to Latvian Kolinko.

Hayden Mullins returns to the squad after serving a three match ban following his sending off at Sunderland in the FA Cup.

Fan Zhiyi is still out with a hamstring injury and will not be available for another two weeks and Neil Ruddock won't be in the starting line-up as he has been told he can leave the club on a free transfer.

Palace will probably play with thses eleven players: Gregg, Austin, Smith, Mullins, Harrison, Rodger, Black, Morrison, Forssell, Pollock, and Thomson.
