ARISE, PALACE
Hodgson’s heroes can put Huddersfield to the sword
CONSIDERING that after 11 games they had four points, four goals and a minus 18 goal difference, Crystal Palace aren’t in that bad a shape.
Yet it feels that Roy Hodgson hasn’t had that much luck. Recent near-misses against Spurs, Man United and Chelsea must be hard to bear for Palace fans.
But the return of talisman Wilfried Zaha plus a visit to Huddersfield (one win in their last nine home matches) must surely mean Palace can get lucky. They are 17/10 with Hills.
Carlos Carvalhal’s Swansea are a crazy 7/1 against a Kane-less Tottenham, who couldn’t win at Newport and Rochdale. Even the draw at 7/2 (Bet365) looks value.
