Oliver Glasner has stabilized the Eagles, who now sit thirteenth with 38 points. They play an aggressive style, shown by their average of two cards received per home game. Still, they must tighten up a defense that allows 1.29 goals per match at Selhurst Park this season.
Ismaïla Sarr is a key man to watch as he starts in the front three. He has scored seven goals so far, averaging 0.38 goals per 90 minutes. With Mateta doubtful, Sarr's pace is vital. Palace wins 4.36 corners per match when playing at home.
The home side will miss Edward Nketiah due to injury, which is a blow for their bench options. Daniel Muñoz is also a doubt, which could hurt their right side. He currently averages 0.25 cards per 90 minutes and is a very aggressive defender for Palace.
Daniel Farke's Leeds are currently fifteenth and desperate for points. Their away form has been quite poor, with the team sitting in the bottom four of the away standings. They only pick up 0.64 points per game when playing away from their own stadium.
Dominic Calvert-Lewin remains their best hope for goals, having scored ten times this season. He averages 0.46 goals per 90 minutes and will lead the line. Leeds must improve their away scoring average of 1.07 goals per match to get a result today.
Ethan Ampadu is a vital midfield presence but often finds himself in the book. He has received seven cards this season, averaging 0.27 per 90 minutes. It is vital for Leeds to improve their defense, which concedes 2 goals per match on their travels. We hope you enjoyed these Premier League Predictions for this weekend.

Prediction
Under 10.5 Corners @1.52
The data suggests a low corner count at Selhurst Park this Sunday. Crystal Palace currently averages just 4.36 corners won per home game, which is quite low for a Premier League side. Meanwhile, Leeds United has been very disciplined defensively on their travels, conceding only 4.43 corners per match. When you combine these figures, the total expected corners fall well below the 10.5 line.
Looking at the overall averages, the stats reinforce this trend for the upcoming clash. The combined average for corners in matches involving these two teams sits at 8.11 per game. Leeds matches away from home specifically average 7.86 corners, while Palace home games sit at 8.36. With neither team pushing high corner numbers recently, staying under the 10.5 threshold seems like a very logical choice.
