The Eagles were held at home in midweek by Southampton in an entertaining 2-2 draw, which followed their 3-1 triumph over Everton last weekend.

Vieira will be hoping he can begin to replicate his side’s home performances on the road, with a Watford side battling to stave off relegation keen to stun Palace this weekend.
Here’s how the Eagles could line up.
Vicente Guaita (GK) – Dropped for the midweek draw with Southampton, but could return this weekend.
Joel Ward (RB) – A dependable figure in the Crystal Palace defence, rarely letting Vieira down.
Joachim Andersen (CB) – Made his return from injury off the bench in midweek and Palace have missed his quality in defence.
Marc Guehi (CB) – Should improve with the return of Andersen from the injury.
Tyrick Mitchell (LB) – One for the future for Palace, showing great maturity for a 22-year-old.
Cheikhou Kouyate (CM) – Offers defensive solidity in a Palace side that likes to pour bodies forward.
Will Hughes (CM) – Back to face his former club in Watford and will be keen to prove a point.
Conor Gallagher (CM) – One of the standout players in the Premier League this season.
Jordan Ayew (RW) – Netted his first Premier League goal in 43 games to salvage a point for Palace against Southampton.
Odsonne Edouard (ST) – Impressive display against Southampton, but he needs to find a ruthless edge to his game.
Wilfried Zaha (LW) – Palace’s talisman, adding another goal to his name in midweek.
