KEY TRIO FOR PALACE
When Michael Olise, Eberechi Eze and Jean-Philippe Mateta have all started a match in the Premier League this season, Crystal Palace have won four of those five games (L1), with an average of 2.4 points-per-game; in comparison, in the 28 games when those three haven’t all been in the XI, Palace have only won five times (D9 L14), averaging 0.9 points-per-game.
Anthony Gordon has 10 goals and eight assists in the Premier League this season, though 83 per cent of these have come in home games (9 goals, 6 assists). He’s just two assists away from becoming only the third Newcastle player to register double figures for both goals and assists in a single Premier League campaign, after Andrew Cole in 1993-94 (34G 13A) and Ruel Fox in 1994-95 (10G 11A).
Alexander Isak has scored seven goals in his last six Premier League appearances for Newcastle, though six of those strikes have come in home games. His 17 goals overall this season is the joint-most by a Swedish player in a single Premier League campaign, level with Zlatan Ibrahimovic in 2016-17.
