Preview: Crystal Palace vs. Huddersfield Town

Crystal Palace vs. Huddersfield Town

Crystal Palace head into Tuesday's Championship clash with Bristol City aiming to record back-to-back wins for the first time in 2013.

Ian Holloway's side got their promotion push back on track last weekend with an impressive 4-1 rout of playoff rivals Middlesbrough at Selhurst Park.

Glenn Murray scored twice for Palace on Saturday and should form a dangerous three-man attack with Stephen Dobbie and Wilfried Zaha despite the impressive form of veteran striker Kevin Phillips from the bench.

The Robins travel to South London after a spirited display at Cardiff City that saw the vistors edged 2-1 by the Championship leaders.

Sean O'Driscoll's side are still four points from safety despite a recent revival but have been boosted by the return of Albert Admoah from Africa Cup of Nations duty.

City could also hand a full debut to Brian Howard after completing a move for the striker last Friday.

Recent Form:

Palace: LDLWDW

City: LWWLWL

Possible lineups:

Palace: Speroni, Delaney, Ramage, Richards, Parr, Dikgacoi, Jedinak, Williams, Dobbie, Zaha, Murray

City: Heaton, Foster, Fontaine, Nyatanga, Moloney, Kelly, Pearson, Adomah, Elliot, Howard, Davies

Sports Mole says: 3-1
