Palace Preview: Eagles eyeing opening day hat-trick v Southampton

Both Crystal Palace and Southampton will be looking for a good start to their Premier League campaign this season. In their last two opening games, Palace have kept clean sheets against Everton and Fulham and will be looking to keep that record going on Saturday.

The last competitive clash for both Palace and Southampton gave the sides a positive outlook to finish the season with; Palace picked up a well-earned point against Tottenham Hotspur while Southampton defeated Sheffield United 3-1.

The Eagles have also had a solid pre-season which gave fans plenty to be hopeful for, including a glimpse of new signing Eberechi Eze and Wilfried Zaha’s goalscoring form.
