They extended their winless run to 16 matches after a 2–0 defeat to West Ham on Saturday and are eager to avoid a 10th away loss this season.

Crystal Palace
Manager Oliver Glasner has reported a significant boost with the return of Adam Wharton, Daichi Kamada, and Borna Sosa. Ismaïla Sarr and Yeremy Pino are expected to start after being fit from the Brighton match, with Sarr looking to score in his third league game in a row. However, the Eagles will be without top scorer Jean-Philippe Mateta (knee), Eddie Nketiah (thigh), and Cheick Doucouré (knee). Justin Devenny will undergo a late fitness test due to a foot issue.
