Palace Unchanged; Bournemouth Make Three Changes

Crystal Palace boss Oliver Glasner named the same starting XI that began the 2-1 loss at Everton, while Bournemouth made three changes — Alex Jimenez, Eli Kroupi and Justin Kluivert — with Marcus Tavernier captaining in place of the absent David Brooks. The Selhurst Park fixture sees Palace on a nine-game top-flight home unbeaten run and enjoying their best-ever Premier League points tally so far, while Bournemouth are among the season’s biggest improvers and a win would briefly send them top before later kick-offs. Glasner said all internationals have returned injury-free but confirmed Chadi Riad and Cheick Doucoure remain long-term absentees, and he dismissed media fuss over Jean-Philippe Mateta while confirming frequent talks with chairman Steve Parish amid contract discussions. The teams met twice last season in 0-0 draws.
