Crystal Palace are sitting relatively comfortably in 12th. With 16 points from 14 games, the South London side are well on track for Premier League survival, but the odds of achieving anything more significant look remote at this stage. However, their current poor form could see them slide down the table. Crystal Palace have won just one of their last six Premier League matches losing to Everton and Luton Town during that run. There’s no need for alarm bells yet, but veteran manager Roy Hodgson will know his side needs to be better to avoid the season taking an unpleasant turn.  

Meanwhile, Bournemouth are enjoying a solid run, picking up two wins in their last three matches, including impressive performances against top-four hopefuls Newcastle and Aston Villa. The Cherries looked like early relegation favorites after going without a win until late October, but have put some real daylight between themselves and the drop zone. Currently, they sit six points above the relegation places. They will look to continue their unbeaten run as they visit Selhurst Park in this midweek Premier League fixture. 

Here's how they line up: 

Crystal Palace: Johnstone, Ward, Andersen, Guehi, Mitchell, Lerma, Richards, Schlupp, Olise, Edouard, Ayew.

Bournemouth: Neto, A Smith, Zabarnyi, Senesi, Kerkez, Christie, L Cook, Sinisterra, Kluivert, Semenyo, Solanke.
