Crystal Palace host Newcastle separated by just one point
Selhurst Park hosts an early-season encounter between two sides separated by a single point after seven games, with both clubs operating under new leadership.
Crystal Palace sit 14th on seven points after seven games as they continue to find their feet in the opening stages of the campaign. They returned to winning ways at Selhurst Park last time out with a 3-1 victory against Nottingham Forest, bouncing back after a goalless draw at Leeds and a high-scoring defeat to Ipswich.
Newcastle occupy 11th place with eight points from their first seven fixtures, sitting just one point above the hosts. Their recent form on the road has been bruising, suffering consecutive 4-1 away defeats against Coventry and Leeds despite picking up a 2-1 home victory over Hull City in between.
