Relief for Palace on Sunday when Ismaila Sarr's second-half goal at Brighton ended a nine-game run without victory and means the Eagles are nine points clear of the relegation zone.
Burnley's home loss to West Ham means the Clarets have not recorded a top-flight win since October 26 – a run of 16 matches, one short of their worst ever in the top-flight at the start of 1989/90. They are 11 points shy of safety.
Prediction: Palace 2 Burnley 0
Manchester City v Fulham (11.30pm)
Erling Haaland's late penalty – his 21st league goal of the season – earned City a vital 2-1 win at Liverpool to cut Arsenal's lead at the top down to six points with 13 games to play.
Fulham's home loss to Everton was the Cottagers' third defeat in four games and saw them drop down to 10th in the table. Marco Silva's side have now gone seven league matches without a clean sheet.
Prediction: Man City 4 Fulham 1
Nottingham Forest v Wolves (11.3pm)
Forest's disappointing loss at Leeds means they are now just three points outside the bottom three, with manager Sean Dyche calling the performance "nowhere near acceptable".
Rock-bottom Wolves have still managed just a single win this season. Their defeat at home to Chelsea on Saturday was their third in a row, following a mini-revival of four games unbeaten.
Prediction: Forest 2 Wolves 1

Sunderland will be looking to maintain their unbeaten home record which has seen them win seven and draw five at the Stadium of Light. But just two wins away from home means the Black Cats are now ninth in the table.

Prediction: Sunderland 2 Liverpool 2
Thursday: Brentford v Arsenal (midnight)
Brentford are now up to seventh spot – level on points with sixth-placed Liverpool – following their 3-2 win at Newcastle, making it four victories in their last six matches.
Arsenal powered to a 3-0 win over Sunderland to maintain their six-point lead at the top, with Viktor Gyokeres grabbing a double. The Gunners, who enjoy the division's best record both at home and away, have lost just three games all season.
