Crystal Palace host Newcastle United this afternoon in the Premier League as the manager-less Magpies try to kickstart their season.

Newcastle arrive at Selhurst Park after the sacking of Steve Bruce, with Graeme Jones taking temporary charge until a replacement is found.

Palace meanwhile are enjoying life under Patrick Vieira, although conceding a late equaliser at Arsenal last time out summed up their season of performances without the results to match.

Newcastle come into the game 19th in the league and still searching for a first win of the season, while Palace are 14th having drawn their past three games.

Here is everything you need to know.

Predicted line-ups

Crystal Palace: Guaita, Ward, Andersen, Guehi, Mitchell, MIlivojevic, McArthur, Ayew, Gallagher, Zaha, Edouard.

Prediction

Palace have looked good this season without always getting the results their performances deserve. Newcastle by contrast have been poor, and they are unlikely to dramatically improve until a new manager whips them into shape. Palace 2-0 Newcastle.
