Crystal Palace vs. Aston Villa Preview

Palace won three of the last four, indicating that their form is on the rise. They’ve also posted two very big road wins in the EPL fixtures, which pushed them towards safety—one at Trafford against United, 0-2, and the other this Saturday vs. Fulham, also 0-2.

Believe it or not, nine of the past 10 games Palace played across all competitions have been with a moderate efficiency, 2 or 3 goals. That’s been the case with the efficiency of their games throughout the entire season.
