Patrick Vieira has made one change to the Crystal Palace side that beat Everton when Southampton come to Selhurst Park on Wednesday.

Jack Butland is given an opportunity in goal, replacing regular shot-stopper Vicente Guaita, who is on the bench.

The Eagles have Joachim Andersen on the bench on his return from a hamstring issue but James Tomkins’ goalscoring performance on the weekend has kept him in the side.

Nathan Ferguson misses out while on the comeback trail from a long-term injury and James MacArthur is absent again due to a hamstring injury.

One selection dilemma was the central striker’s role after Odsonne Edouard failed to score when given a first start in over a month against Everton.

The Frenchman was taken off for Christian Benteke for the final quarter of an hour and has been given another chance to impress against Southampton.

Crystal Palace XI: Butland; Ward, Tomkins, Guehi, Mitchell; Gallagher, Hughes, Kouyate; Ayew, Edouard, Zaha.

Subs: Guaita, Clyne, Andersen, Riedewald, Milivojevic, Schlupp, Eze, Olise, Benteke.
