Both teams could be happy with the split of points in this case. Home side Crystal Palace is even the draw specialist this season, having already notched up seven draws (3-7-2), including the last shootout at Burnley (3-3). The visitors, led by new coach Steven Gerrard, broke their streak of five straight losses, beating Brighton 2-0 last time. Palace haven't lost once at their stadium yet this season (2-4-0) and if it wasn't for so many draws, they could still be significantly better than their current tenth position. Aston Villa, on the other hand, will not be happy with a four-point lead on the relegation zone, as there was cautious talk of fighting for the European Cup before the season. Coach Gerrard can lift the team, but two wins in his first two Premier League games on the Aston Villa bench have been celebrated by only one coach in history - John Gregory in 1998. But the legendary Liverpool midfielder will certainly not be angry even if his team does not lose.
My prediction: Draw @ 3.40 (bet365)
