CRYSTAL Palace have been given a boost that five players are missing for Newcastle United in the Capital One Cup on Wednesday night.
Saturday's two-goal hero Papiss Cisse has fallen ill along with the likes of goalkeeper Tim Krul and attacker Yoan Gouffran.
And the Magpies looks set to be without Siem De Jong and Rolando Aarons for the trip to Selhurst Park as well.
Palace are set to make a number of changes themselves, as Neil Warnock looks to give a few players some game-time, including Paddy McCarthy, Adlene Guedioura, Barry Bannan and Jonny Williams.
