Crystal Palace have now picked up more points in four PL games (9) since Alan Pardew returned to Selhurst Park than they had in their previous eleven (8) after another excellent win on the road this time at the King Power Stadium Leicester last weekend.

The Eagles entertain Newcastle United on Wednesday evening as Alan Pardew goes head-to-head with his former Club for the first time since returning to Palace in December. It is sure to be an emotionally charged atmosphere and this is the third time the sides have met this season.

Palace had failed to score in seven games in a row against the Magpies before the start of the current season but the sides have already met twice this season sharing six goals at St James's Park in August before Palace lost 3-2 to Alan Pardew's Newcastle in the Capital One Cup the following month.

Palace are 7/5 at BetVictor to keep all three points with the draw 11/5 and the visitors 12/5; I expect to see goals and the 4/1 for an Eagles win and both sides finding the back of the net is the recommendation.

Dwight Gayle, Marouane Chamakh and Yaya Sanogo are 7/1 co-favourites to grab the opener alongside Newcastle's Ayoze Perez who has been in excellent form for the Geordies of late. I am sure Alan Pardew, if his side are successful, will say it is just another three points but deep down he must want to show his old club just what they are missing after four often turbulent years at the Club.

The Eagles are out to 9/1 to be relegated and cut to 10/1 for a top half finish. We have been banging on for months about the likelihood of the three promoted sides from last season being relegated back to the Championship this campaign. The trio were cut from 5s to 2/1 after the weekend losses of Leicester and QPR and the home draw of Burnley who once again let slip a two-goal lead this time against the Baggies.

Liverpool are the visitors in the FA Cup 5th Round on Saturday in a repeat of the 1990 FA Cup semi-final at Villa Park when Alan Pardew scored an extra time winner in a famous 4-3 success for the Eagles. All talk of the Reds and the Cup is on the back burner, however, until after the visit of Newcastle and if you told the Eagles boss he could only win of the games this week I wonder which one he would choose?

A win against Newcastle will certainly do for starters.
