Palace is a tough place to play at, so it will be a big challenge for us and require entire concentration and focus on the task in hand.” Jesse Marsch will be without Adam Forshaw who will now miss the remainder of the season. The man in the middle on Monday night will be Darren England. The official has overseen 19 matches this season, showing 78 yellow cards and one red in that time. The all-important scenario down the bottom for Jesse Marsch’s side is clear, and that’s to keep focusing on your own matches, as the season conclusion edges closer. #LUFC #MOT @CrusaderLeeds pic.twitter.com/NNdGasLEPw April 22, 2022 Palace return to Selhurst Park after playing their last two games away from home.

Zaha gets a second bite at it from a tighter angle, but the keeper stretches to kick that one away as well. Clyne fizzes a great throughball down the left for Olise, but a heavy touch takes it away from him before he can put in a cross. He has Schlupp ahead of him, but he knocks it straight out of play to big groans from the fans. The points are shared after a goalless draw between Crystal Palace and Leeds United. The hosts dominated the game, creating some great chances, but they just couldn't find a way through their opponents. His shot takes a deflection off Ayling, and it loops just wide of the far top corner. Leeds stay in 16th, and that point means they're now five points above Everton and the relegation zone.

Marsch has a few words for Zaha and ultimately it calms down, but the referee has almost lost control of this one. Some small improvements from Leeds, but Palace still having the better of the middle and making it look nervy across the Leeds backline. The cumulative effect of Darren England's decisions to keep his cards pocketed for fouls on Zaha gets the crowd going berserk when he blows to bring play back for Raphinha, who had gone down with what looked like a high hand from Zaha. Benches get involved. His loose pass allows Leeds to break but Greenwood's pass is poor and the hosts clear. Ayling is winning the ball with these Zaha challenges, but the latter's falls do keep asking a question of the referee. Koch comes away with the ball on the halfway line and Leeds work it to the edge of the area. Leeds probably take that on the balance of play. Connor Gallagher hits it on the half-volley and it goes narrowly over the bar. Both sides buoyed on by their fans but neither able to keep the ball very long. Palace and Leeds hunting every single ball but nobody has been able to take advantage yet. It has been 16 days since Jesse Marsch's side saw off Watford 3-0 in their last match and the pressure is on once again at the bottom of the pile. Gallagher goes down inside the area but nothing given.
The underdog Crystal Palace side has several advantages that point to an upset over Leeds United.

Leeds lose it, Palace break, Ayling trips Zaha. A yellow for me, that. Toes it past the keeper but there's not quite enough on it and Leeds are able to hack it clear. Will we see a bit more quality in the second dig? A nice crossfield pass here, Raphinha picks it up in the inside right channel, cuts inside and tries to fire it left foot. Leeds are the first to show here. Booking for that, and then a booking for Ward as well for retaliating. It all made for a well-earned point for Leeds, even if they might have needed more. The arrival of Michael Olise helped in that regard and before long they were creating chances for Zaha — denied twice by Leeds goalkeeper Illan Meslier — and Conor Gallagher, who fired over from range. The scrappiness of the game did not suit Palace’s players, who created chances but never looked likely to show the ruthless edge that was required against a spirited Leeds backline. Such was the animosity that Vieira once accused Marsch of swaying the referees by “crying all week” in the build-up to the game. An ugly point, but a point nonetheless for a Leeds United team that remains a part of this relegation scrap whether they like it or not. The fixture list is not a source of encouragement for Leeds, who face Manchester City, Arsenal and Chelsea in their next three games.
The Eagles host Jesse Marsch's Leeds at Selhurst Park on Monday night in a bid to end a run of three straight defeats.
Despite that, Olise is expected to be in the matchday squad on Monday, while full-back Nathan Ferguson remains on the sidelines. Jesse Marsch will be without Adam Forshaw for the trip to London after he fractured his kneecap during training. Palace are currently 14th in the league on 37 points, though a victory over the Whites on Monday would lift them up three spots into 11th thanks to their goal difference.

Nathaniel Clyne's overlap and the subsequent cross is exactly what Vieira will want from him tonight. A series of fouls on Wilfried Zaha out wide sees plenty of free-kicks but no bookings. Palace a re really turning the screw now. Palace boss Patrick Vieira will be keen to avoid another first half like his side had at St James’ Park, where they struggled to match their hosts' intensity and repeatedly gave the ball away in poor positions. Referee Darren England is not a popular man right now. Leeds, meanwhile, head to south London on a four-game unbeaten run.
Jesse Marsch has confirmed Leeds United's team at Crystal Palace in he Premier League on Monday night at Selhurst Park.
Illan Meslier has recovered from the knock at Wolverhampton Wanderers while Luke Ayling and Stuart Dallas continue in the full-back positions. Diego Llorente retains his place alongside Liam Cooper after praise from Marsch for the clean sheet at Vicarage Road. One change was enough for Jesse Marsch in the Leeds United line-up which saw off Watford 3-0 more than two weeks ago with Kalvin Phillips restored.
