Back-to-back wins have lifted Newcastle out of any relegation danger and they can now begin to look up the table rather than down.
They may not have been at their best for large periods of the win over Leicester, but it was another solid team performance with few, if any, failing to play their part in the win.
That means Eddie Howe has another few selection headaches to contend with before Wednesday’s game.
Does he stick with the 11 that started against the Foxes? Or will he opt to rotate a winning team with the Magpies having just over 72 hours to recover before the game on Wednesday evening?
Here, we take a look at the Newcastle United team that Eddie Howe could select to face Crystal Palace:

10. ST: Chris Wood

11. LW: Allan Saint-Maximin
Once again, the Frenchman didn’t have a great game last time out but his class means he has to start for Howe’s side. Photo: Stu Forster
