After a disastrous start to the season, Crystal Palace found some consistency earlier in the year and managed to push themselves out of the drop zone. However, they are just two points above safety, struggling at 16th place, and are in desperate need to finish the season on a strong note to retain their top-flight status.
The Eagles’ game against Liverpool after the international break is their toughest in the run until the end of the season and Roy Hodgson will believe that his side can finish close to the top half of the table.
But he will need his players bang in form for the rest of the season and here are three of them, who could be crucial Palace’s survival:
#3 Wilfried Zaha
The English winger missed more than a month of action due to an injury but is finally back to full fitness and it is already showing in their game. He is easily the best player in the and his form will be crucial for Palace’s future in the top flight.
Zaha can win games on his own and is one of the best in the league when it comes to creating something out of nothing. With Benteke and Sorloth up front, Zaha could play a key role in not only scoring a few but also assisting the two big men up front.
