Joel Ward - Unused substitute against Liverpool Ward (calf) was fit enough to be included in the match-day squad versus Liverpool on Saturday.

Impact Ward returned from a three-match stint on the sidelines due to his calf issue. Prior to being out of the squad, the defender has started just three times in Palace's prior eight contests, including serving as an unused substitute three times. As such, Ward is far from a lock for the starting XI even with his injury concerns seemingly behind him.

Vicente Guaita - Four-save clean sheet Guaita made four saves and secured a clean sheet in Saturday's 0-0 draw against Liverpool.

Impact Guaita made four saves and came away with the clean sheet Saturday as he did enough to shut Liverpool down. It was Guaita's sixth clean sheet in 24 starts, a poor return, especially compared to the 2021/22 campaign, where he produced 11 clean sheets.

Jean-Philippe Mateta - Three shots in draw Mateta generated three shots (zero on goal) in Saturday's 0-0 draw versus Liverpool.

Impact Mateta produced three shots, though none of them troubled Alisson's net. The forward has been a bench option more often than not, though he's start three games in a row. In that span Mateta has yet to put a shot on net, though he has taken seven shots.

Jordan Ayew - Four crosses Saturday Ayew generated four crosses (one accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 0-0 draw versus Liverpool.

Impact Ayew sent in four crosses and created a chance during a match that never looked like ending in goals. Ayew couldn't break down the Liverpool defense, a theme of the season for the forward, who has just two goal contributions. Ayew doesn't seem to have any of the upside he once showed, as he has struggled as a finisher and a creator.

Nathaniel Clyne - One cross in draw Clyne had one cross (one accurate) and one tackle in Saturday's 0-0 draw against Liverpool. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 26th minute.

Impact Clyne sent in a single cross against his former club, coming away with the clean sheet, just his second in 16 starts. The right-back has been a nailed-on starter since the end of the World Cup break, though he lacks any sort of offensive upside, with only two chances created in that span.

FEBRUARY 26, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Marc Guehi - Pair of tackles in draw Guehi registered one shot (zero on goal) in Saturday's 0-0 draw versus Liverpool.

Impact Guehi did enough to shut down Liverpool with a pair of tackles and a clean sheet for his troubles. The center-back is generally lacking in upside, and the somewhat shaky Crystal Palace defense doesn't have the most clean sheet upside possible. Still Guehi has been a competent defender and a nailed-on starter in the center of the defense.

Nathan Ferguson - Features with reserve team Ferguson (foot) played 45 minutes in the Palace u-21 side's draw against Manchester United on Monday, according to manager Patrick Vieira Friday.

Impact Ferguson is yet to feature for Palace's senior team this season as he's been dealing with a long-term injury and has suffered multiple setbacks. But he returned to training with the squad in February and was able to play for the youth team this week, with Vieira noting that he's "making progress" with his recovery.

Tyrick Mitchell - Training ahead of Liverpool match Mitchell (ankle) has been training ahead of Saturday's match against Liverpool, according to manager Patrick Vieira.

Impact It's a nice update on Mitchell, who was forced off in the 82nd minute last weekend against Brentford. Assuming all is right for the left-back, he'll be in the starting XI in a massive spot against Liverpool. Mitchell has a lot of tread on his tires the last two seasons, but he's been fairly healthy, as well. He doesn't offer a ton of upside from a defender, as Vieira prefers his full-backs to be a bit more defensive, seen in Mitchell's 31 crosses through 19 starts (21 appearances).

Wilfried Zaha - Training, could be option Saturday Zaha (hamstring) returned to training Friday and is considered a late test for Saturday's match against Liverpool, according to manager Patrick Vieira. "Wilfried is getting better....

Impact This update is a bit better than last week when Zaha was given a two-week timeline. Still, one training session the day before a match doesn't mean he'll be in the starting XI. At best, he'll be on the bench and used if actually fit, but it's still likely he won't be an option given the nature of the injury.

Sam Johnstone - Suffers calf injury Johnstone is expected to miss around six weeks after picking up a calf injury, Matt Woosnam of The Athletic reported Wednesday.

Impact Johnstone's only appearances this season have come in the Carabao Cup, but he will likely be sidelined until April with this injury. Joseph Whitworth should take over as Palace's backup to Vicente Guaita in goal until Johnstone can return.

Joachim Andersen - Attempts two shots Saturday Andersen recorded two shots (two on goal) in Saturday's 1-1 draw against Brentford. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 35th minute.

Impact Andersen was active going forward despite his defensive nature, but his contributions were not enough to lift Palace to what would've been an impressive away victory. This was Andersen's return to the starting lineup, and he should remain in the XI going forward as long as he stays fit.
