Crystal Palace FC (4-3-0, 12 points) and West Bromwich Albion FC (2-3-2, 8 points) will go head-to-head in a 2015-2016 Premier League week 8 match at the Selhurst Park on Saturday, October 3.
The Eagles won their game versus Watford FC, 1-0, last Sunday at the Vicarage Road to successfully bounce back from two straight defeats against Tottenham and Manchester City in their last two outings.
Midfielder Yohan Cabaye provided the winning goal for Alan Pardew's boys in the highly-defensive game with a penalty kick at the 71st minute, via BBC Sport.
It was the first home defeat for the newly-promoted Hornets in the season as they faced a highly dangerous road squad in Crystal Palace.
Meanwhile, the Baggies lost again for the first time after going on a three-game unbeaten run.
West Brom dropped a close 2-3 match with Everton on Monday at the Hawthorns as Albion striker Romelu Lukaku had a double in the match, as per Bleacher Report.
Saido Berahino and Craig Dawson gave the Throstles a 2-0 lead nine minutes into the second half before Lukaku's goals pushed the Toffees in front with six minutes until full time.
Tony Pulis will try to fend off back-to-back losses in this game while CPFC would like to keep the momentum going and go back to their winning ways.
Prediction: A close 1-0 win for Crystal Palace.
