Crystal Palace and Cardiff City go head to head at Selhurst Park this Saturday with both sides keen to claim maximum points.

Crystal Palace will be determined to snatch their fourth unbeaten game in a row following a disappointing start to the new Championship campaign.

The Eagles face a tough test against Cardiff City this weekend but they will attempt to grab a home victory following this week's 1-1 draw with Nottingham Forest.

The Bluebirds are expected to be on a high after clinching a 2-0 win over Millwall on Tuesday and manager Malky Mackay has the option of fielding either Nicky Maynard or Heider Helguson.

Meanwhile, Freedman is likely to call on Wilfried Zaha in attack with a defensive pairing of Joel Ward and Damien Delaney.

Recent form:

Crystal Palace: LLWDD
Cardiff: DLWWW

Possible lineups:

Crystal Palace: Speroni; Ward, Moxey, Delaney, Ramage; Dikgacoi, Garvan, Jedinak, Williams, Zaha; Murray

Cardiff: Marshall; McNaughton, Taylor, Hudson, Connolly; Whittingham, Noone, Gunnarsson, Mutch; Smith, Maynard

Sports Mole says: 1-2
