Crystal Palace vs Leicester: Prediction, TV channel, live stream, team news, kick-off time, h2h - preview

Crystal Palace are seeking an upturn in fortunes after two chastening defeats as they take on Leicester today.

Roy Hodgson’s side were hammered 7-0 by champions Liverpool last weekend, a result which the Eagles boss called a “humiliation”.

Things did not get much better on Boxing Day, however, with Palace beaten 3-0 by an Aston Villa side that played 45 minutes with ten men.

They face no small task here, however, against a Leicester team who have beaten Tottenham and drawn with Manchester United in their last two games.

Date, time and venue

Crystal Palace vs Leicester is schedule for a 3pm kick-off today, December 28, 2020.

The game will be played behind closed doors at Selhurst Park.
