Crystal Palace host Nottingham Forest at Selhurst Park in a Premier League fixture that carries genuine weight for both sides as the season begins to take shape.

Pierre Sage's Palace arrive on the back of a mixed run, their recent results spread across league, cup and European action with no clear momentum to lean on. The Eagles have been inconsistent, and a home defeat to Ipswich Town still lingers.

Forest come to south London having shown they can compete with the division's stronger sides, holding both Tottenham and Liverpool in their last five outings. But Oliver Glasner's men have also suffered back-to-back defeats, and a 1-0 loss to Coventry City last time out in the Premier League will have stung.

Glasner has been vocal in recent days, delivering a stark warning about the Manchester City legal situation and the threat it poses to the Premier League's credibility. His Forest side will want their football to do the talking here.

James McAtee has drawn significant attention this season, with the Manchester City academy graduate growing into a more prominent role under Glasner. His form has raised questions about whether an England call-up could follow.

For Crystal Palace, the absences of several key players will test the depth of Sage's squad, and how they cope without them could define their afternoon.
