Betting tipster Danny Hayes previews Crystal Palace versus Swansea.
A two-week international break should have given Neil Warnock and his side the team plenty of time to resolve their defensive troubles that has seen eight goals conceded in two games.
Championship new-boys Swansea will be the latest side to visit SE25 this weekend, where Palace are still seeking their first league goal. The Welsh side have adapted to life in the higher grade in taking fashion and have one of the brightest managers in the game in Roberto Martinez.
He has adopted a 4-5-1 formation, which suit their quick passing game and they are a huge threat on the counter-attack, especially away from home where they concede very few goals.
With the Eagles surely looking to keep things tight after two poor results there should be few very clear-cut scoring opportunities and the draw looks the likely outcome this weekend.
Back the draw @ 12/5 with Coral.
The rest of the Championship looks very difficult to predict this weekend but in the Premier League I like the look of Manchester United to outclass a Torres and Gerrard-less Liverpool at Anfield.
Fulham should also be able to dispose of an injury-ravaged Bolton at the Cottage. The West-London side are very good at home and have continued this season where they finished last and should be far too good for Bolton.
Back a Manchester United / Fulham double @ 11/2 with Coral.
