Will Hughes - Returns to starting XI Hughes (undisclosed) is in the starting XI for Thursday's match against Brighton.

Impact Hughes is back in the team sheet for Crystal Palace after missing their last match due to injury, returning to his normal spot in the starting XI. Before encountering the injury, the midfielder was in and out of the starting XI for four matches straight but will hope to return to his starting spot every contest now that he is healthy, as he started in eight straight matches before falling to the bench for a couple of games.

Jefferson Lerma - Starting against Brighton Lerma (undisclosed) is in the starting XI for Thursday's match against Brighton.

Impact Lerma is making his return to lay after missing the club's last match against Manchester City, gaining back his regular spot in the starting XI. The midfielder should remain in a starting role moving forward, getting the start in all but five matches this season, with all of his absences being due to injury.

Eberechi Eze - Progressing well in recovery Eze (ankle) is progressing well and could see a start for Thursday's clash with Brighton, according to manager Roy Hodgson."Otherwise, the ones who have been injured are making goo...

Impact Eze is making great progress in his recovery and was even on the bench against Manchester City. The attacking midfielder is absolutely crucial to the team, but with three matches in less than a 10-day span there's some concern about risking him in the first of three games Thursday.

Jefferson Lerma - Healing faster than expected Lerma (undisclosed) is recovering ahead of schedule, according to manager Roy Hodgson."Otherwise, the ones who have been injured are making good progress, most of them. [Jefferson]...

Impact Lerma is making excellent progress in his recovery from an undisclosed issue that saw him ruled out against Manchester City. The hope will be that Lerma is ready to go for Thursday's clash with Brighton, though that seems far from guaranteed.

Joel Ward - Set for sideline spell Ward (leg) will be out for an extended period of time, according to manager Roy Hodgson. "Joel Ward, as I think everyone knows, picked up an injury, unfortunately, last weekend,"

Impact Ward will miss an extended period of time, likely ruling him out until after the winter break. The defender suffered the leg injury against Manchester City and had to be replaced by David Ozoh. Ozoh could see some more minutes moving forward while Ward is on the sideline.

Jordan Ayew - Eligible to return Thursday Ayew has served his one-match ban for a double yellow against Liverpool on Dec. 9 and will now be available for Thursday's clash with Brighton.

Impact Ayew has started all but one of his 16 appearances for the club this season, so he should retake his place in the starting XI. In those contests, the forward has scored just one goal on 28 shots (10 on target) but has added three assists, 41 crosses (five accurate) and three corners.

Jeffrey Schlupp - Earns assist against City Schlupp assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 2-2 draw versus Manchester City.

Impact Schlupp played a major part in Palace's comeback Saturday, assisting on Jean-Philippe Mateta's goal in the 76th minute of the draw. This was Schlupp's first assist of the season, giving him two goal contributions on the season and his first since Nov. 4. The midfielder continues to be a regular starter in the Crystal Palace side, missing only two starts all season, both being due to injury.

Jean-Philippe Mateta - Nets goal in draw Mateta scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) in Saturday's 2-2 draw versus Manchester City.

Impact Mateta was the first Palace player to get on the score sheet Saturday, finding the back of the net in the 76th minute off of a Jeffery Schlupp assist. This gives Mateta his second goal of the season, now having five goal contributions on the season. This was his first start in seven matches, being only his fourth of the whole season.

Michael Olise - Scores form penalty spot Olise scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal), four crosses (zero accurate) and one corner in Saturday's 2-2 draw versus Manchester City.

Impact Olise saved Palace from losing all three points Saturday, equalizing the match after converting a penalty in the 95th minute. After missing the first 11 matches of the season, he has started in four of the club's past six matches, scoring two goals during that span. He will look to remain in the starting XI moving forward, especially with regular starter Odsonne Edouard out with a knee injury.

DECEMBER 17, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Dean Henderson - Concedes two Saturday Henderson made seven saves and allowed two goals in Saturday's 2-2 draw against Manchester City.

Impact Henderson had a great game despite giving up two goals, making seven saves in the draw. The goalie made his season debut against City, having been out since the summer due to a hip injury. He was given the starting nod in the net with fellow goalkeeper Sam Johnstone (leg) out but will look to maintain the starting role after serving as Nottingham's starter for the second part of last year's camping. If he is given the start again in their next match, he will face a firey Brighton team that has scored 33 goals in 17 matches.

Joel Ward - Injured early Saturday Ward was forced off in the first half of Saturday's match against Manchester City due to a leg injury.

Impact Ward slipped awkwardly and was replaced in the 34th minute by David Ozoh. The full extent of the defender's injury should be revealed following the match as Ward has been a locked in starter for Palace in recent weeks.

Will Hughes - Not in squad to face City Hughes (undisclosed) is not in the match day squad to face Manchester City on Saturday.

Impact Hughes misses out on Saturday's match for undisclosed reasons as no injury was revealed in the buildup. Jairo Riedewald returns to take Hughes' spot in the starting XI.
