Player to watch – Eberechi Eze

Palace star Eberechi Eze is finishing the season in fine form and seems to be peaking at the perfect time with the Eagles’ FA Cup Final date with Man City on the horizon and fast approaching.

Eze’s purple patch

Eze has scored four times in his last six appearances for Palace and he might have had more had his superb effort from long range against Nottingham Forest not come back off the crossbar last time out. The 26-year-old scored when Palace last visited Spurs (March ’24) and the England international could be a key protagonist again on Sunday.
