Crystal Palace had an excellent win in the Conference League on Thursday evening. The Eagles return to Premier League action on Sunday but are only 14th in the table. They host 12th placed Newcastle United at Selhurst Park. Read our match prediction below.

Palace's hopes of another season in European football may well have to depend on winning the Conference League. They are seven points adrift of the places that could qualify them for Europe but are in much better form than at the start of the year. As you will read in the form section of this preview, they are a difficult side at present to beat on home soil and will hope for another win this weekend.

Newcastle United are out of the Champions League and four points behind the top eight in their domestic competition. The Magpies are not the most consistent side around and have lost their last two games but had some recent away league victories. There doesn't seem to be any imminent prospect of coach Eddie Howe losing his job but might that change if there's no European football next season?

Crystal Palace - Newcastle: Form Analysis

Thursday saw Crystal Palace beat Fiorentina 3-0 at home in the first leg of their Conference League quarter-final. That took their unbeaten league and cup run to five games, last losing at Manchester United in early March.

That loss at Old Trafford is the only one they have experienced in their last nine games in all competitions. Home form has seen the Eagles unbeaten in five games with all of them seeing a clean sheet kept. Four of those games had under 2.5 goals scored in them.

A history of low-scoring games at Selhurst Park.

Each of the last eight games played between these two sides at this venue have seen under 2.5 goals scored. That statistic has come up in 16 of the last 19 games played between Palace and Newcastle.

Newcastle United have lost their last two matches and conceded nine goals. Seven of those came in their Champions League exit at Barcelona. Even more painful was the 2-1 home loss to local rivals Sunderland in their last home league match.

The Magpies have only won four away league games this season and been beaten in seven. Two of the last four have been lost but they were at Liverpool and Manchester City.  They have had recent away victories at Spurs and Chelsea.

Crystal Palace & Newcastle Squad Analysis

This is such an important game for both clubs. Crystal Palace had an excellent win in the Conference League on Thursday and look extremely likely to reach the semi--finals. Back in the Premier League, there has been much improved form of late but it needs to be maintained.

Their home record is strong and away clubs are finding it difficult to score at Selhurst Park.. Scoring three goals at home against Fiorentina was a big boost for them. They have struggled for goals at home this season.

Sarr is in good scoring form for Palace.

Ismaila Sarr scored on Thursday and he has scored in three of his club's last five matches. Crazy stat time. Seven of his 12 goals for Palace this season were scored between the 35th minute and the half-time break. They will be missing Eddie Nketiah for this game.

Newcastle have found it difficult to score on the road in this season's Premier League. They have had a couple of recent away league victories but also losses at Liverpool and Manchester City. Bruno Guimaraes and Fabian Schar will both be absent for this match.

Our Crystal Palace vs Newcastle Prediction

One poor run of form has put Palace in danger of failing to qualify for Europe via their league position. The Eagles have come through their bad patch and could yet secure a top eight finish and win the Conference League.

Newcastle are also in danger of missing out on Europe and that would be a big blow for them. Consistency has been a problem and regularly struggle for goals on the road. Our main Crystal Palace v Newcastle prediction is under 2.5 goals.
