2025-26 Premier League: Week 26 – Crystal Palace vs Burnley

Crystal Palace continue their fight for Premier League survival against Burnley at Selhurst Park.

Victory could lift Palace up to 12th if Fulham lose elsewhere, whilst Burnley will remain second-bottom regardless of the result.

 

Team News

Justin Devenny is available for Palace after recovering from an ankle injury which sidelined him in recent weeks, including their 1-0 victory at Brighton on Sunday.

Eddie Nketiah (muscle), Jean-Philippe Mateta, Cheick Doucoure (both knee), Rio Cardines (adductor) and Caleb Kporha (back) remain absent.

Burnley will welcome midfielder, James Ward-Prowse back into contention after he was ineligible to feature in their 2-0 loss at home to West Ham.

Zeki Amdouni (knee), Josh Cullen (ACL), Conor Roberts (Achilles), Mike Tresor (ankle) and Jordan Beyer (hamstring) remain sidelined.

 

When is Kick-Off?

Palace host Burnley at Selhurst Park on Wednesday 11 February at 7:30pm GMT, live on TNT Sports 5 in the UK.

Prediction

With their nine-match winless league run now over following a clinical smash-and-grab display at Brighton, Palace now need to follow that up with victory here if want to put some space to the drop before they resume their UEFA Conference League campaign next week.

Burnley meanwhile are as good as down after their wasteful display against West Ham so their remaining league games do feel like a free hit now, and they can afford to focus on having a FA Cup run to lift their morale for the remainder of this season.

All eyes here though will be on Palace and if they can build on their first win since early December here, this should be a routine result.

Prediction: Crystal Palace 2-0 Burnley

Result: Crystal Palace 2-3 Burnley
