The current round of Premier League soccer bleeds into Monday, when Crystal Palace and Nottingham Forest will do business at Selhurst Park. Having had a nice amount of time to rest and prepare following their huge FA Cup semi-final success, the Eagles will be looking to soar in front of a home crowd, as they so often have done this season. Can they get the better of a Forest side that has started to feel the pinch after a long and hard-fought campaign.
While the hosts can play with freedom and confidence, the visitors are under pressure. Having spent most of the season in the top four, the Tricky Trees have recently dropped to sixth in the table. They're only ahead of seventh-place Aston Villa on goal difference, so they need to win this game, though given that they've won only one of their last five in all competitions, Nuno Espirito Santo's men probably lack the confidence to really get at a home team that can hurt anyone when in full flow.

Our Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest Prediction
Given the odds on offer ahead of Monday's EPL fixture, Ismaila Sarr is hard to ignore. The winger/forward has been in fine form of late, while his stats really are impressive. As he comes into this game well rested after scoring twice and assisting against Aston Villa in the FA Cup semi-final well over a week ago, he looks a great bet to make a tangible contribution for a home team that can play with freedom against a side lacking confidence. Moreover, the odds on offer simply don't reflect the threat of the Senegal international accurately enough, so there's value to be had. Our Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest Pick: Ismaila Sarr to Score or Assist.
