Crystal Palace aim to create more distance from the relegation zone as they travel to King Power Stadium to face struggling Leicester in Wednesday’s EPL clash.

Leicester City, the surprise champions of the 2015-16 campaign, have found their return to England's elite league anything but straightforward, as they currently languish second to last with only 14 points earned from 20 matches. Although they trail the safety zone by just two points, the Foxes must urgently halt their dismal five-game losing streak in the league, but they received a boost froom a stellar performance over the weekend, where they saw off Queens Park Rangers with a devastating 5-2 in the third round of the FA Cup.

While they didn't put on a dominant display in the FA Cup weekend action like their Wednesday's hosts, Oliver Glasner's side still booked their spot in the fourth round, as Eze's 4th-minute goal being sufficient to send Stockport County packing. A few day later, Criystal Palace returns to their Premier League duties, where they will look to extend their unbeaten run to four matches and create an even more safer gap from the relegation zone, as they currently hold a five-point cushion over the bottom three.

In the reverse fixture earlier this season, Leicester and Crystal Palace served up a captivating match for the crowd at Selhurst Park to end up sharing the points in a 2-2 draw, and we hope another thrilling contest between them is on the cards here. The Foxes' defense has proven to be extremely leaky, as shown in their weekend FA Cup clash where, despite conceding two goals, they celebrated a huge 6-2 victory over QPR, and it was also the 10th time in their last 11 matches in all competitions that their goalkeepers has been forced to pick at least two balls out of his own net. However, Palace's defensive efforts offer little to smile about, especially on enemy territory, given that they have managed to keep their opponents at bay in just two out of 12 road competitive matches this season. After all, recent meetings between these rivals have provided plenty of entertainment, with goals shaking at both ends in six of the last seven H2Hs, and given the vulnerabilities in their defenses this season, we reckon both nets will be moved at least one on Wednesday.
