Leicester go into matches against West Bromwich Albion and Palace aiming to bounce back from successive defeats, which has hindered their chances of a top four finish. 
 
The Eagles have endured a topsy-turvy campaign and while they should avoid a late relegation fight, pressure has continued to mount on Roy Hodgson. Palace are winless in two games following a 4-1 loss at home to Chelsea last time out. 
 
"Sometimes we have to do what we think is absolutely necessary to get those points," Hodgson said after their defeat to the Blues. 
 
"We have to accept with all humility that we can't go toe to toe and play exactly the way they play because they've got very different players. But I still think we have enough self respect and enough belief in ourselves to do more than we did today."

The reverse fixture at Selhurst Park earlier this season ended in a 1-1 draw. Wilfried Zaha opened the scoring before a late equaliser from Harvey Barnes for the visitors.
