Bournemouth vs Crystal Palace | Should We Be Worried? | Match Preview

[@simonbeams1628]

Great show guys

[@timbeyers58]

Bournemouth has been impressive so far this season. They're also a fun team to watch when I'm a neutral. My hope for and belief in a result on Boxing Day comes from Palace's pattern this season: the team has shown more in away matches than in home fixtures. Two good results at Villa. The wins at Ipswich and Brighton. The comeback at Chelsea. It's been a tough season and away form has been far from perfect. (Ex: at Forest in Oct.) Still, I wouldn't count us out just yet -- Munoz returning could have a big impact. UTP!

[@davidbudd3563]

Patrick you can say Arsenal are much better than us and I’d agree. However we had arguably our four best players missing. Eze, Wharton, Munoz and Doucoure. That is a big miss for us.

[@WilfFrost]

Munoz is back..badly missed against Arsenal

[@Nerdyfootballfan26]

It’s gonna be very hard to get anything from this game. Bournemouth are so good at home.

[@stephendyer8646]

We can take lots of positives from both games Sarr and EN great goals lots of other good chances we missed a very key player in Munoz plus any defensive complacency will be gone 0-3.

[@errolanthony7462]

Pairing Devenny with Hughes will be good. This isn't about just throwing in a youngster, it's about using a player in our squad who has shown he has the drive, confidence and physicality to play + fresh legs in this run of games. One of few who played well against Fulham, was great against Villa and made his presence felt in the cup game against Arsenal when he came on. We'll need that energy to compete in midfield against Bournemouth

[@Luke86811]

2-0 Bournemouth

[@boomslangCA]

Now that Saturday is fading in memory I'm a bit more confident and can see us maybe getting a result if Hughes and Lerma can stay healthy and put in a decent shift. Bournemouth are a good team but not a great one so we do have a shot. I'll go 1-3 Palace. Delusional optimism again.

[@Lowequay]

As a Bournemouth I hope for a Cherries win but think this is going to be a tough one for us. Seems Palace are regularly better than results show.

[@michaelcoudray4624]

A point here would be decent..

[@TomClarkSouthLondon]

Result is inevitable 😮

[@s33k_13]

0-1 win

[@JackTerry-q4p]

The problem with kamada is the fact he's our highest earner, not performing, and there seems a lack of effort.... we all know we will get behind a player that works hard... he just doesn't show the work rate or passiob

[@paullawrence8572]

Fascinates me our little club like Bournemouth can be so far in front of other big clubs but throughly deserved and good luck to them! Sorry but think this is going to be yet another loss they're flying! How long can you stick with Glasner if so??

[@mrjeanesmaths6663]

I love your optimism guys but i really cant see us getting anything here. Delaying Wharton's surgery is really coming back to haunt us now. Let's hope Lerma can score against his former club as it always happens the other way round !

[@allansedgwick-pc4xe]

Think we will get something from the game. I’m going for the draw. 2-2

[@star_wars_miniatures]

Was the name of this channel somewhat inspired by our own very popular fan channel Back of the net?🤔 just curious 🍒🍒🍒

[@BackOfTheNest]

Nope - knew about Back Of The Net after 😂

[@star_wars_miniatures]

@ that’s fair enough, just thought I’d ask! On further inspection I see your page was created a year before ours😅😅😅 my bad!

[@Blackflunk2]

I guess we'll still play U21 players, so yes we should be worried. The team is not premier league quality, Arsenal demolished us at home. Bournemouth will probably win 2-0 at this point.

[@swammy17]

Lose this one and draw at home to saints unfortunately imo why because it’s just typical palace 😂
