Crystal Palace responded to Tony Pulis’s appointment early on, but have been slowed by three defeats in their last four.
Still, they remain just above the drop thanks to Fulham’s horrific goal differential, and will host Norwich City at Selhurst Park at 10am ET live online at NBC Sports Live Extra.
A win would ensure they remain out of the relegation zone, something that remains of utmost importance.
Pulis has decided to pair Marouane Chamakh and Cameron Jerome up front following their failure to score against Manchester City. That means sacrificing Barry Bannan in the midfield.
Part of that decision was due to the absence of a number of players with injuries, including Jack Hunt, Glenn Murray, Jerome Thomas and Adlene Guédioura.

The visitors are thankful to still have Gary Hooper healthy. He struggled with a tight leg muscle last time out but is fit enough to start for Chris Hughton.
Anthony Pilkington and Alexander Tettey are both looking to return soon for Norwich, but are not ready to go just yet.
