Palace are comfortably placed in 12th and their form has been so impressive under Oliver Glasner that he has been strongly linked with the head coach role at Bayern Munich.

As for Villa, Unai Emery has guided them to a fourth-place finish and qualification for the Champions League.

Crystal Palace current form

Palace have won five out of their last six games and in those six games they have scored 15 goals.

One of those victories came against Man Utd and it was an impressive one, too, as they demolished the Red Devils 4-0.

Aston Villa current form

Villa's recent form in the Premier League has been poor, but they have been given a helping hand to fourth place due to the even worse form of Tottenham.

In their last three games, they have drawn against Chelsea, lost against Brighton and drawn against Liverpool.
