Leicester City face a trip to Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park on Tuesday evening, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Foxes will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them ending up on the losing side in more than half of the games played between the two.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was just last season, in January 2009, the Eagles carving out a narrow 2 - 1 victory in a F.A. Cup match.

Recent respective form guides
Crystal Palace's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While Eagles have scored 4, a worringly large 8 have been leaked at the other end.
Leicester City's away form is none too clever either, with two wins, two draws, and two defeats. Only 5 goals have been registered in this time, with 6 leaked at the wrong end.
Crystal Palace are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 38 points from 35 matches. Leicester City's total of 57 points from their 35 games sees them sitting in the playoff places in Coca-Cola Championship.
